Status Update summary
8 Jul, 2026Clinical program highlights
Presented updated data from the ongoing global Phase 1b trial of ORIC-114/Enozertinib in non-small cell lung cancer, including both pretreated and treatment-naive patients with EGFR exon 20 and PACC mutations.
Demonstrated highly competitive systemic and intracranial response rates, including in patients with active, untreated brain metastases.
The preferred dose for future development is 80 mg once daily, based on optimal efficacy and safety balance.
No significant off-target toxicities were observed, and the safety profile was manageable at the 80 mg dose.
Next program update is planned for mid-2026, ahead of potential Phase 3 registrational trials.
Differentiation and competitive positioning
Distinguished by strong CNS activity and lack of significant off-target toxicities, addressing a major unmet need in EGFR-mutated NSCLC.
Demonstrated robust brain penetrance, with 100% intracranial response rate in first-line patients with measurable CNS disease.
Systemic response rates are on par with or exceed competitor datasets, despite enrolling a higher proportion of patients with brain metastases.
Tolerability at 80 mg is similar to or better than competitors, with lower rates of discontinuation and no significant cardiac, hepatic, or hematological toxicities.
Efficacy is consistent across both near loop and far loop EGFR exon 20 mutations, as well as common and complex PACC mutations.
Dose optimization and safety
Higher rates of grade 3 diarrhea and dose reductions were seen at 120 mg, leading to lower dose intensity and efficacy.
At 80 mg, patients maintained dose intensity, resulting in higher and more durable response rates.
Treatment-related adverse events were mostly grade 1 or 2, with diarrhea, paronychia, and stomatitis being the most common.
Discontinuation rates at 80 mg were low (6%), and most discontinuations at 120 mg were due to progression rather than safety.
80 mg once daily selected as the recommended dose for potential Phase 3 development.
