Popis: On September 17, 2021, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved cabozantinib (Cabometyx™; Exelixis, Inc.) for the treatment of adult and pediatric patients 12 years of age and older with locally advanced or metastatic differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC) that has progressed following prior VEGFR-targeted therapy and who are radioactive iodine (RAI)-refractory or ineligible. This is the first approval for patients with RAI-refractory locally advanced or metastatic DTC who have progressed following prior therapy and the first approval in pediatric patients with DTC. The approval was based on data from COSMIC-311 (Study XL184-311, NCT03690388), an international, randomized, double-blind trial in which patients with locally advanced or metastatic RAI-refractory DTC that progressed during or following treatment with at least one VEGFR-targeting tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) were treated with either cabozantinib 60 mg orally once daily (N=170) or placebo with best supportive care (N=88). The primary efficacy outcome measures were progression-free survival (PFS) and overall response rate (ORR) by blinded independent central review (BICR) per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) 1.1 criteria. The median PFS was 11.0 months (95% CI: 7.4, 13.8) in the cabozantinib arm compared to 1.9 months (95% CI 1.9, 3.7) in the control arm, with a hazard ratio (HR) of 0.22 (95% CI: 0.15, 0.31). The endpoint of ORR was not met. No new safety signals were identified with the exception of hypocalcemia which was added as a warning in the product labeling.
