  • Emerging Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumor therapies in the different phases of clinical trials are- QINLOCK (ripretinib), AYVAKIT (avapritinib), VITRAKVI (larotrectinib), Bezuclastinib, GSK6042981, SAR003, IDRX-42, THE-630, PDR001, Crenolanib, Famitinib, CGT9486, PLX9486, Nilotinib, HQP1351, DS 6157, and others are expected to have a significant impact on the Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumor market in the coming years.

  • In August 2025, In patients with advanced gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) who had not received prior treatment, the combination of Gleevec (imatinib) and Mektovi (binimetinib) demonstrated strong and lasting clinical benefits in terms of disease progression and overall survival. Findings from a ten-year follow-up of this regimen, conducted in a single-center, single-arm Phase 2 study, were presented at the 2025 American Society of Clinical Oncology Annual Meeting and published in the Journal of Clinical Oncology.

  • In August 2025, With a median follow-up of over 18 years, imatinib (Gleevec) was shown to achieve 20-year survival in more than 10% of patients with advanced gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST). Higher long-term survival rates were observed in women, patients with smaller primary tumors, and those with KIT exon 11 mutations, according to results from the Phase 3 BFR14 trial (NCT00367861). Published in Annals of Oncology, the study reported a median overall survival (OS) of 75.3 months (95% CI, 63.9–86.6) for all 424 patients, with a median GIST-specific survival of 83 months (95% CI, 70.2–97.7).

  • In April 2025, Kura Oncology enrolled the first participants in the open-label Phase Ia/Ib KOMET-015 trial, investigating the oral menin inhibitor ziftomenib for advanced gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) after imatinib failure. This dose-escalation study is designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and preliminary antitumor activity of ziftomenib in combination with imatinib in adults with GIST. The primary objectives are to determine tolerability, assess safety, and establish the recommended Phase II dose. Following dose escalation, expansion cohorts will further examine ziftomenib’s safety, clinical activity, and overall tolerability.

  • In January 2025, The combination of bezuclastinib (CGT9486) and sunitinib (Sutent) demonstrated promising efficacy and long-term tolerability in patients with previously treated gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST), outperforming historical data. These results come from part 1 of the Phase 3 Peak study (NCT05208047) and were presented at the 2025 Gastrointestinal Cancers Symposium.

 

Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumor Overview

Gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) is a rare type of cancer that develops in the digestive tract, most commonly in the stomach or small intestine. It originates from specialized cells in the gastrointestinal tract called interstitial cells of Cajal, which help regulate gut motility. GISTs can be benign or malignant and often grow silently, sometimes causing symptoms like abdominal pain, bloating, or gastrointestinal bleeding. Diagnosis typically involves imaging studies and biopsy, and treatment may include surgery, targeted therapies (such as tyrosine kinase inhibitors), and close monitoring to manage tumor growth and reduce recurrence risk.

Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumor Emerging Therapies Assessment:

QINLOCK (ripretinib): Deciphera

QINLOCK (ripretinib) is an oral switch-control kinase inhibitor designed to treat GIST, targeting a broad range of KIT and PDGFRA mutations, including initiating and resistance mutations in exons 9, 11, 13, 14, 17, and 18. Beyond its approved use, it is also under Phase III investigation as a second-line therapy, underscoring its potential to expand treatment options and address resistance challenges in GIST.

 

AYVAKIT (avapritinib): Blueprint Medicines

AYVAKIT (avapritinib) is a selective kinase inhibitor approved for adults with unresectable or metastatic GIST harboring PDGFRA exon 18 mutations, including D842V, and Advanced Systemic Mastocytosis (AdvSM).

 

VITRAKVI (larotrectinib): Bayer

VITRAKVI (larotrectinib) is a kinase inhibitor approved for adults and children with solid tumors harboring an NTRK gene fusion without resistance mutations. It is indicated for metastatic or inoperable GIST with no satisfactory treatments or progression post-therapy.

 

Bezuclastinib: Cogent Biosciences

Bezuclastinib is a highly selective Type I inhibitor of the KIT receptor tyrosine kinase, targeting oncogenic KIT mutations in the activation loop encoded by exons 17 and 18, including KIT D816V, a key driver mutation in most cases of systemic mastocytosis.

 

GSK6042981: GSK

GSK6042981 also known as IDRX-42, an oral KIT tyrosine kinase inhibitor, is under clinical development for GIST, the most common soft tissue sarcoma in the gastrointestinal tract.

  • Designed to target key KIT mutations driving tumor growth and resistance, GSK6042981 aims to address significant unmet needs in GIST treatment. Currently being evaluated in the Phase I/Ib StrateGIST 1 trial, IDRX-42 has shown promising anti-tumor activity, including a 53% objective response rate in second-line patients.

  • Plans are underway for StrateGIST 3, a Phase III trial for second-line GIST therapy. The US FDA has granted IDRX-42 FTD and ODD.

 

SAR003: Sartar Therapeutics

SAR003, developed by Sartar Therapeutics, is a first in-class molecular glue in preclinical development for GIST and PDE3A-expressing sarcomas. By binding PDE3A to Schlafen12, it induces selective cancer cell death, including in TKI-resistant tumors. Backed by ODD in the US and EU and strong IP protection, SAR003 is being advanced for both monotherapy and combination approaches, positioning it as a promising precision therapy to address key unmet needs in advanced GIST.
