Ropotrectinib (TPX-0005; TP Therapeutics, San Diego, CA, USA) is a nextgeneration ROS1 inhibitor, a novel three-dimensional macrocyle with a much smaller size (MW <370) than current ROS1 inhibitors. It was specifically designed to overcome resistance mutations. Preclinical studies have shown activity against gatekeeper and solvent mutations, including G2032R, D2033N, L2026M, S1986F/Y, L1951R, and kinases involved in bypass signaling such as focal adhesion kinase, SRC proto-oncogene, and non-receptor tyrosine kinase [102, 103].

Repotrectinib has advantage with central nervous system (CNS) penetration, aimed to target both wide-type (WT) and solvent-front mutations (SFM) kinases and other resistance mutations including ROS1-G2032R and ROS1-D2033N, TRKA-G595R, TRKB-G639R, TRKC-G623R, and ALK-G1202R.
