The US FDA approved a supplemental New Drug Application for taletrectinib (Ibtrozi) in ROS1-positive non-small cell lung cancer, updating the label with extended duration of response data showing nearly 50 months median benefit in TKI-naïve patients. The approval precedes the PDUFA target and incorporates results from ongoing TRUST clinical trials, reinforcing taletrectinib as a potent, CNS-active next-generation ROS1 inhibitor with a consistent safety profile.
