Taletrectinib for the treatment of ROS-1 positive non-small cell lung cancer: a drug evaluation of phase I and II data

Taltrectinib has the potential to improve PFS based on its greater potency against ROS1+ tumors and high CNS penetration. By selectively inhibiting ROS1 wild-type and its resistant mutations over TRKB, taltrectinib has a better safety profile with minimal CNS-related AEs compared to other ROS1+ inhibitors.
