Study summary

This is an open-label, multinational, randomized Phase 2 study confirming the clinical benefit of 20 mg futibatinib and evaluating the safety and efficacy of 16 mg futibatinib in previously treated CCA harboring FGFR2 gene fusions and other rearrangements.

Read the detailed description

This is an open-label, multinational, randomized Phase 2 study confirming the clinical benefit of 20 mg futibatinib and evaluating the safety and efficacy of 16 mg futibatinib in previously treated CCA harboring FGFR2 gene fusions and other rearrangements. Eligible patients will be randomized on a 1:1 basis to the following study arms:

  • Patients will receive futibatinib at an oral dose of 16 mg, administered daily (QD) on every day of a 21-day cycle.
  • Patients will receive futibatinib at an oral dose of 20 mg, administered daily (QD) on every day of a 21-day cycle.

Patients may continue to receive continuous futibatinib until documentation of progressive disease (PD) per RECIST 1.1, or until other withdrawal criteria are met, whichever comes first.

  4. Documentation of radiographic disease progression on the most recent prior therapy
  5. performance status 0 or 1
  6. Adequate organ function

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. History or current evidence of calcium and phosphate homeostasis disorder
  2. Current evidence of retinal disorder
  3. Treatment with any of the following within the specified time frame prior to the first dose of futibatinib:

    1. Major surgery within the previous 4 weeks (the surgical incision should be fully healed prior to the first dose of futibatinib) and radiotherapy for extended field within 4 weeks or limited field radiotherapy within 2 weeks
    2. Patients with locoregional therapy, eg, transarterial chemoembolization (TACE), selective internal radiotherapy (SIRT) or ablation within 4 weeks
    3. Any non anticancer therapy within 3 weeks or have not recovered from side effects of such therapy prior to futibatinib. Endocrine therapy is allowed for patients with breast or prostate cancer
    4. Targeted therapy or immunotherapy within 3 weeks or within 5 half lives Any investigational agent received within 5 half-lives of the drug or 4 weeks, whichever is shorter.
    5. Patients with prior FGFR-directed therapy
  4. A serious illness or medical condition(s) including (but not limited to) the following:

    1. Known (not including primary brain tumors) unless patient is clinically stable for ≥1 month

    3. Myocardial infarction, severe/unstable angina, symptomatic congestive heart failure ( [NYHA] Class III or IV New York Heart Association [NYHA] Classification) within the previous 2 months; if >2 months, cardiac function must be within normal limits and the patient must be free of cardiac-related symptoms
    4. Significant gastrointestinal disorder(s) that could interfere with the absorption of futibatinib.
    5. Other severe acute or chronic medical or psychiatric condition or laboratory abnormality that in the judgment of the Investigator would make the patient inappropriate for entry into this study.
  5. Known additional that is progressing or requires active treatment, with the exception of patients with a prior or concurrent malignancy whose natural history or treatment does not have the potential to interfere with the safety or antitumor assessment of the investigational regimen. Exceptions must be discussed with the Sponsor prior to patient enrollment.
  6. Pregnant or lactating female.
  7. Known or severe reaction to futibatinib or its .
Terms in these criteria, in plain language(10)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

Histologically or cytologically confirmed

The diagnosis was confirmed by looking at a sample under a microscope: tissue from a biopsy or surgery (histology), or cells from a fluid or needle sample (cytology).

Your pathology report is the document that shows this.

Metastases

Cancer that has spread from where it began to other parts of the body. “Metastatic” cancer is cancer that has spread this way.

Measurable disease

The amount of disease can be tracked with a defined measurement, so the study can see whether it shrinks or grows. It might be a tumour measured on a scan or, in some blood cancers such as myeloma, a marker measured in blood or urine.

The criteria or the study team say which measurement counts — having no tumour visible on a scan does not by itself rule you out.

Clinically significant

Judged by the study doctor to matter for your health or for the study. It is a doctor’s decision, so ask the study team if you are unsure whether something counts.

Investigational drug or device

A drug or device being studied in a clinical trial.

It may be new, or already approved and being studied for another use, dose or form. Criteria often leave out people who took part in another study of one within a recent period, commonly 30 days or five half-lives.

Brain metastases

Cancer deposits in the brain from a cancer that started elsewhere in the body (CNS metastases include the spinal cord).

Studies differ: some leave out any brain metastases, some accept ones treated and stable for some weeks. Check what this study allows.

NYHA class (heart failure)

The New York Heart Association’s four classes of how much heart failure limits physical activity.

I
No limits: ordinary activity causes no undue tiredness or breathlessness.
II
Slight limits: comfortable at rest, ordinary activity causes symptoms.
III
Marked limits: comfortable at rest, less than ordinary activity causes symptoms.
IV
Symptoms even at rest; any activity makes them worse.

Studies set their own limit — many outside heart failure leave out class III–IV, while heart failure studies may ask for a particular class. Check the class this study names.

Cancer (malignancy)

Malignancy means cancer. Criteria about another or earlier malignancy ask whether you have had a different cancer, usually within a set number of years.

Some are commonly allowed, such as treated skin cancers other than melanoma and early cancers removed completely — check the exceptions this study lists.

Hypersensitivity

An allergy, or another reaction of the immune system, to a substance. “Hypersensitivity to the study drug” means a known allergic reaction to it — not every side effect a medicine can have.

Excipients

The other ingredients in a medicine besides the active drug, such as fillers, colours or preservatives.
