Introduction: Fibrolamellar carcinoma (FLC) displays upregulation of several oncogenes, including , and multiple immune-suppressive mechanisms. We investigated the efficacy and safety of the pan-HER tyrosine kinase inhibitor neratinib as monotherapy (SUMMIT phase 2 basket study) or with immune checkpoint and/or mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) inhibitors (compassionate-use program) in patients with FLC.
Methods: Patients received neratinib 240 mg/day orally in SUMMIT, or as doublet or triplet combinations with pembrolizumab 2 mg/kg intravenously every 3 weeks, nivolumab 240 mg intravenously every 2 weeks, everolimus 7.
The irreversible pan-HER tyrosine kinase inhibitor neratinib is approved for patients with HER2-positive, early-stage and metastatic breast cancer (BC). Neratinib-associated diarrhea is the most common reason for early discontinuation. Preclinical studies identified mechanisms of neratinib-induced diarrhea and rationale for prophylactic and preventive measures.

Neratinib, an irreversible pan-HER tyrosine kinase inhibitor, had activity in several HER2-mutant cancer types in the phase 2 SUMMIT basket study. We present updated and final results from the cervical cancer cohort of SUMMIT.

HER2 mutations are infrequent genomic events in biliary tract cancers (BTCs). Neratinib, an irreversible, pan-HER, oral tyrosine kinase inhibitor, interferes with constitutive receptor kinase activation and has activity in HER2-mutant tumours. SUMMIT is an open-label, single-arm, multi-cohort, phase 2, 'basket' trial of neratinib in patients with solid tumours harbouring oncogenic HER2 somatic mutations (ClinicalTrials.

Diarrhea is the most frequent side effect and the most common reason for early discontinuation. The phase II CONTROL trial investigated antidiarrheal prophylaxis or neratinib dose escalation (DE) for prevention of diarrhea.

Aims: To evaluate the effect of lansoprazole, a proton-pump inhibitor, on the absorption, pharmacokinetics, and safety of neratinib, a pan-HER tyrosine kinase inhibitor, in healthy subjects.
Methods: This was an open-label, two-period, fixed-sequence study. Fifteen healthy adult subjects received a single oral dose of neratinib 240 mg (Period 1), followed by a washout period, then oral lansoprazole 30 mg once daily for 7 days and a single dose of neratinib 240 mg on Day 5 (Period 2).
