A Phase 2 interventional study of FCN-159 in Brain Arteriovenous Malformations, sponsored by Xuanwu Hospital, Beijing. Recruiting at 1 site in China. Open to participants aged 18 Years to 60 Years. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2025-04-06.
Sponsored by Xuanwu Hospital, Beijing · Phase 2, Interventional, and Treatment
A single-center, open-label, non-randomized controlled exploratory study is conducted in the Xuanwu Hospital Capital Medical University to evaluate the efficacy and safety of FCN-159 in patients with brain arteriovenous malformations (BAVM), aiming to overcome the current clinical challenges caused by the lack of available drugs for this disease.
This open-label Phase 2 study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of FCN-159 in participants with BAVM disease who currently deemed unsuitable for surgery, radiotherapy, interventional embolization, or lacking corresponding surgical treatment indications based on investigator judgment. Eligible patients have no prior rupture. This project plans to recruit 10 patients with BAVMs. They are 1:1 divided into FCN-159 group and no-treatment controlled group. It is stratified by gender, age (±5 years), anatomical site of the lesion, Spetzer-Martin grade. FCN-159 will be administered orally and treatment will be continuous, 28 days as a cycle. The major efficacy outcome measure is overall response rate (ORR) assessed by silence MRA. Participants will be evaluated radiologically at 3, 6, 12 treatment cycles after initiation of treatment, and then every 6 treatment cycles and EOT.
Xuanwu Hospital, Beijing is the lead sponsor of 357 studies on the registry; 226 are open to participants now.

The patient must have adequate organ and bone marrow function, and must not have received blood transfusions or used any supportive medications (such as cytokines or erythropoietin) to elevate white blood cells, platelets, or hemoglobin levels within 7 days prior to screening:
Absolute neutrophil count ≥ 1.0 × 10\^9/L. Hemoglobin ≥ 90 g/L. Platelet count ≥ 100 × 10\^9/L. Total serum bilirubin ≤ 1.5 × upper limit of normal (ULN), patients with Gilbert's syndrome may have ≤ 3.0 × ULN.
Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) ≤ 2.5 × ULN.
Albumin ≥ 3 g/dL. Creatinine \< 1.5 × ULN or creatinine clearance ≥ 50 mL/min. Urine protein \< 2+; if urine protein ≥ 2+, then 24-hour urine protein quantification must be ≤ 1g.
Coagulation function: International normalized ratio (INR) and activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) ≤ 1.5 × ULN.
Exclusion Criteria:
Participants receive 8mg FCN-159 orally once daily. Participants continue to reveive FCN-159 until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity or other end-of-treatment criteria.
Drug: FCN-159
Patients in the control group will undergo conservative observation throughout the study period.
