Keywords

Brief summary

This is an open-label non-randomized, multicenter, phase II study of BGJ398 administered to adult patients with histologically confirmed GBM and/or other glioma subtypes with FGFR1-TACC1, FGFR3-TACC3 fusion and/or activating mutation in FGFR1, 2 or 3.

Detailed description

Patients were enrolled in two groups. Group 1 enrolled patients who are not candidates for surgery. Group 2 was planned to enroll patients who are surgical candidates. Patients from both groups were evaluated for tumor response and progression by MRI every 8 weeks until disease progression or discontinuation from study using RANO criteria.

Inclusion criteria

1. Patients with histologically confirmed GBM and/or other glioma subtypes at the time of diagnosis or prior relapse. 2. Written documentation of local or central laboratory determination of amplification or translocation to FGFR1-TACC1, FGFR3-TACC-3 fusion and/or activating mutation in FGFR1, FGFR2,or FGFR3 3. RANO defined tumor progression by MRI in comparison to a prior scan 4. Patients must have received prior external beam radiotherapy and temozolomide.

Exclusion criteria

1. History of another primary malignancy 2. Prior or current treatment with a FGFR inhibitor 3. Neurological symptoms related to underlying disease requiring increasing doses of corticosteroids 4. Patients must not be taking Enzyme Inducing Anti-Epileptic Drug (EIAED). If previously on an EIAED, the patient must be off of it for at least two weeks prior to study treatment.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Progression Free Survival6 monthsTo assess the anti-tumor activity of BGJ398 for patients with GBM and/or other glioma subtypes that harbor FGFR1-TACC1, FGFR3-TACC3 fusion and/or activating mutation in FGFR1, 2 or 3 based on PFS6 (PFS rate at 6 months as defined by RANO criteria as assessed by the investigator)

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Overall Response Rate5 yearsTo further assess the anti-tumor activity of BGJ398 for patients with GBM with an amplification, translocation, or activating mutation in FGFR1,2,3 or 4, based on Objective Response Rate (ORR - patients with measurable disease - as defined by RANO criteria as assessed by the investigator

Participant flow

Recruitment details

All 26 patients included were enrolled in the non-Surgical group, and were treated with BGJ398 125 mg once daily in 28-day cycles, on a 3 weeks on/1 week off schedule (dosing days 1 to 21 of every 28-day cycle). No patients were enrolled in the surgical group.

Pre-assignment details

Patients were planned to be enrolled in two groups: Group 1 (non-surgical group) targeted patients with response assessment in neuro-oncology (RANO) defined tumor progression not eligible for surgical resection. Group 2 (surgical group) targeted patients with recurrent disease eligible for cytoreductive surgery.
