Background: Oncogenic activation of FGFR2 via genomic rearrangement, gene amplification, or point mutation in advanced solid tumors provides the opportunity for rapid clinical development of highly selective FGFR2 inhibitors using a precision oncology approach to deliver clinical benefit to genomically-defined patient (pt) populations. Unfortunately, this opportunity remains largely unrealized as current, non-selective small molecule inhibitors (pan-FGFRi) suffer from off-isoform toxicity (FGFR1-hyperphosphatemia; FGFR4-diarrhea) and on-target acquired resistance leading to only modest efficacy primarily limited to FGFR2-fusion+ intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC). RLY-4008 is a novel, oral FGFR2 inhibitor designed to overcome the limitations of pan-FGFRi by potently and selectively targeting primary oncogenic FGFR2 alterations and acquired resistance mutations. We initiated a first-in-human (FIH) precision oncology study of RLY-4008 in advanced solid tumor pts with FGFR2 alterations with primary objectives to define the maximum tolerated dose/recommended phase 2 dose (MTD/RP2D) and adverse event (AE) profile of RLY-4008 and key secondary objectives to assess FGFR2 genotype in blood and tumor tissue, pharmacokinetics (PK), and anti-tumor activity. Methods: This is a global, multi-center, FIH dose escalation/expansion study of RLY-4008 (NCT04526106) in adult pts who have unresectable or metastatic solid tumors with FGFR2 alteration per local assessment, ECOG performance status 0-2, measurable or evaluable disease per RECIST 1.1, and who are refractory, intolerant, or declined standard therapy including pan-FGFRi. FGFR2 alteration will be confirmed retrospectively by central laboratory assessment. For the dose escalation (Ñ50), RLY-4008 is administered QD/BID on a continuous schedule with 4-week cycles according to a Bayesian Optimal Interval design that allows accelerated dose titration, additional accrual to dose levels declared tolerable, and exploration of alternative schedules if warranted. The MTD is determined via logistic regression of the dose limiting toxicity rate across all dose levels and an RP2D less than the MTD may be considered based on observed AEs, PK, and anti-tumor activity. Following dose escalation, the dose expansion (Ñ75) will treat pts with RLY-4008 at the MTD/RP2D and includes 5 groups with any prior therapy (except group 2): 1. FGFR2 fusion+ ICC pts; 2. FGFR2 fusion+ ICC pts with no prior FGFRi; 3. FGFR2 fusion+ pts with other solid tumors; 4. FGFR2-mutation+ solid tumor pts and 5. FGFR2-amplified solid tumor pts. The primary endpoints are MTD/RP2D and AE profile; key secondary endpoints are FGFR2 genotype in blood and tumor tissue, PK parameters; overall response rate, and duration of response per RECIST 1.1. US enrollment began SEP2020 and Europe/Asia start-up is underway. Clinical trial information: NCT04526106
