About Taletrectinib
Taletrectinib is an oral, potent, central nervous system-active,
selective, next-generation ROS1 inhibitor specifically designed for
the treatment of patients with advanced ROS1+ NSCLC. Taletrectinib
is being evaluated for the treatment of patients with advanced
ROS1+ NSCLC in two Phase 2 single-arm pivotal studies: TRUST-I
(NCT04395677) in China, and TRUST-II (NCT04919811), a global
study.
Based on results of the TRUST-I and TRUST-II clinical studies,
the U.S. FDA has accepted and granted Priority Review to Nuvation
Bio’s NDA for taletrectinib for advanced ROS1+ NSCLC (line
agnostic, full approval) and assigned a PDUFA goal date of June 23,
2025. The U.S. FDA previously granted taletrectinib Breakthrough
Therapy Designation for the treatment of patients with locally
advanced or metastatic ROS1+ NSCLC who either have or have not
previously been treated with ROS1 TKIs, and Orphan Drug Designation
for the treatment of patients with ROS1+ NSCLC and other NSCLC
indications. In January 2025, China’s NMPA approved taletrectinib
for the treatment of adult patients with locally advanced or
metastatic ROS1+ NSCLC.
