Background: CCA is a hepatobiliary malignancy with poor prognosis and few treatment options following cytotoxic therapy in the first-line metastatic setting. The fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR) axis may promote CCA tumorigenesis. FGFR2 fusions (in up to 17% of intrahepatic CCAs) may predict FGFR inhibitor sensitivity. A prior phase 1 trial of the selective pan-FGFR inhibitor BGJ398 showed antitumor activity in a pt with CCA harboring an FGFR2 fusion. Methods: This ongoing phase 2, open-label study is evaluating oral BGJ398 125 mg once daily on a 3-week-on/1-week-off schedule (28-day cycle) in pts with advanced or metastatic CCA with FGFR2 fusions (n ≈ 40) or other FGFR genetic alterations (n ≤ 15) who progressed after cisplatin/gemcitabine or are cisplatin intolerant (NCT02150967). The primary endpoint is investigator-assessed overall response rate (ORR) per RECIST v1.1. Secondary endpoints include progression-free survival, best overall response (BOR), disease control rate (DCR), overall survival, safety, and pharmacokinetics. Results: As of 10 July 2015, 26 pts with CCA harboring FGFR2 fusions (n = 22) or other FGFR alterations (n = 4), pretreated with 1 to ≥ 4 prior regimens, were enrolled. Common adverse events (AEs; ≥ 20% of pts), were hyperphosphatemia (50%), fatigue (42%), constipation (38%), cough (23%), and nausea (23%). Grade 3/4 AEs occurring in ≥ 2 pts were hyper/hypophosphatemia, lipase increase, and hyponatremia. AEs were manageable, reversible, and rarely led to treatment discontinuation. Among 22 pts evaluable for BOR, 3 achieved partial response and 15 had stable disease, including 10 with tumor reductions (-41%, n = 1; -2% to -29%, n = 9). Overall DCR was 82%. As of the cutoff date, 18 pts remained on therapy, of which 13 were on for > 120 days. Kaplan-Meier estimated lower limit (95% CI) of median time on study was 143 days. Conclusions: BGJ398 shows impressive anti-tumor activity and a manageable safety profile in pts with advanced FGFR-altered CCA, an indication of high unmet medical need. Updated data including additional responses post data cutoff will be presented. Clinical trial information: NCT02150967
