Final results from the phase I study expansion cohort of the selective FGFR inhibitor Debio 1,347 in patients with solid tumors harboring an FGFR gene fusion

3603 Background: Debio 1347 is a selective oral inhibitor of FGFR 1-3 tyrosine kinases. It exhibited high antitumor activity in in vitro and in vivo tumor models with FGFR1-3 gene fusions. Here we report the results of the expansion portion of a Phase 1 study of advanced solid tumors patients (pts) harboring an FGFR1-3 gene fusion. Methods: Pts with advanced refractory solid tumors harboring an FGFR1-3 gene fusion were enrolled. Based on results from the dose escalation portion, pts received Debio1347 80 mg once daily (qd) in 28-day cycles. Pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics were evaluated. The data cut-off was October 8, 2019. Results: Among 18 pts enrolled, 5 had primary brain tumors (PBT), 5 had cholangiocarcinoma, 2 had urothelial cancer, 2 had colon cancer, 1 patient each lung neoplasm, gastric cancer, endometrial cancer and squamous cell carcinoma of the chest wall. Tumors harbored fusions with FGFR1 (n = 1), FGFR2 (n = 8), and FGFR3 (n = 9). All had prior systemic therapy (median 3 lines; range 1-4). The most common treatment emergent adverse events were fatigue (50%), hyperphosphatemia (44.4%), anemia (38.9%), alopecia (33.3%), nausea (33.3%), vomiting (33.3%), constipation (33.3%), and palmar-plantar erythrodysesthesia syndrome (22.2%). Blurred vision was reported in 1 pt. There were no findings on ocular exams compatible with retinal detachment. No grade 3 AE related to study drug were reported. One patient needed dose reduction due to grade 2 nails toxicity. In PK analysis, plasma steady-state was rapidly achieved and serum phosphate increase correlated with Debio 1347 plasma exposure, confirming target engagement at 80 mg qd. Median follow-up was 18 weeks. Partial responses were observed in 3 pts harboring an FGFR2 fusion: 1 out of 2 colon cancer and 2 out 5 cholangiocarcinoma. Median duration of response was 16.1 weeks (range: 8.4-22.8+). Overall disease control was observed in 11 out of 14 pts without PBT (79%). Median PFS was 18.3 weeks. No signs of activity were observed in the 5 patients with PBT, all with an FGFR3-TACC3 fusion. Conclusions: Debio 1347 at the recommended dose of 80 mg qd was generally well tolerated and showed signs of activity in solid tumors harboring an FGFR fusion. The FUZE phase 2 clinical trial of Debio 1347 is recruiting FGFR fusion-positive advanced solid tumors irrespectively of tumor histology, excluding PBT. Clinical trial information: NCT01948297 .
