Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Adults (≥18) with advanced or metastatic RET fusion or mutation-positive solid tumors, in adequate health to participate, and able to comply with study procedures.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients whose tumors lack RET alterations or who do not exhibit pharmacokinetic changes may not experience direct therapeutic benefit.

What this trial studies
This is a phase 4, open-label study to evaluate the impact of pralsetinib on the pharmacokinetics of a cocktail of CYP3A4, CYP2C8, and CYP2C9 probe substrates, and, in women, a hormonal probe substrate, in adults with RET-altered solid tumors. The trial involves administering pralsetinib alongside the probe substrates to see if drug levels or metabolism are affected. Participants have advanced or metastatic solid tumors that harbor RET fusions or mutations and meet specific health criteria. The study is conducted at two sites in Spain and is sponsored by Rigel Pharmaceuticals. No experimental controls are described beyond the pharmacokinetic assessments during treatment.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, the study could clarify how pralsetinib interacts with other drugs, guiding safer prescribing for patients with RET-driven cancers.
How similar studies have gone: Drug-drug interaction assessments with targeted therapies have informed safer use in other RET-driven studies, though the precise pralsetinib interactions are specifically being evaluated here.

Inclusion Criteria: * Must be willing and able to participate and comply with all study requirements and to provide signed and dated written informed consent * Adult male or female ≥ 18 years of age at the time of signing the informed consent form. * Must have a body mass index (BMI) ≥ 18 and ≤ 32 kg/m² and a minimum body weight of 50 kg at screening. * Must have an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status ≤ 2. * Must have recovered from the non-hematologic toxic effects of prior treatment to Grade ≤ 1, or baseline value (excluding infertility, alopecia, or Grade 1 neuropathy) * Must have a confirmed diagnosis of advanced or metastatic solid tumor that has relapsed after, or is not responsive to, standard therapies and harbors an oncogenic RET fusion or mutation as determined by a validated test. * Must have adequate organ function, defined by the following: 1. Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥ 1.0 × 10⁹/L. 2. Platelet count ≥ 75 × 10⁹/L. 3. Hemoglobin ≥ 9 g/dL. 4. Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) ≤ 3 × upper limit of normal (ULN), or ≤ 5 × ULN in patients with known liver metastases. 5.

International normalized ratio (INR), prothrombin time (PT), and activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT) within normal laboratory limits. * Must be at least 4 weeks from major surgery, radiotherapy, chemotherapy, immunotherapy, kinase/targeted therapy, or gene therapy prior to the first dose of study treatment and recovered from treatment-related toxicities to ≤ Grade 1 (excluding alopecia). Must be ≥ 6 weeks since last treatment if they received a long-acting agent such as a nitrosourea, mitomycin, or monoclonal antibodies. In general, a treatment interval of two half-lives should be considered and discussed with the Sponsor. (Concurrent cancer therapy of any type is not permitted). * Female patients may participate if they are not of childbearing potential (e.g., surgically sterile or postmenopausal). * Male patients with female partners of childbearing potential must agree to use highly effective contraception during study treatment and for 90 days after the last dose of study treatment. * Male patients must refrain from sperm donation during study treatment and for 90 days after the last dose of study treatment. Exclusion Criteria: * Clinically relevant abnormal medical history, abnormal findings on physical examination, vital signs, electrocardiogram (ECG), or laboratory tests at screening that, in the investigator's judgment, are likely to interfere with the objectives of the trial or the safety of the patient. * Surgery (e.g., gastric bypass) or medical condition that may significantly affect absorption of study medications, as judged by the investigator. * History of pneumonitis within the last 12 months. * History of active or latent tuberculosis (TB), regardless of treatment history, or a positive screening test for latent Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection by QuantiFERON® TB Gold. Indeterminate results may be confirmed by repeat testing or by a purified protein derivative (PPD) skin test. * Serious infection requiring intravenous or systemic antibiotics within 7 days prior to initiation of study treatment, or any active infection that, in the opinion of the investigator, could impact patient safety (e.g., COVID-19 or influenza). * Clinically significant, uncontrolled cardiovascular disease, including: 1. New York Heart Association (NYHA) Class III or IV congestive heart failure. 2.
