Background: Tinengotinib is a spectrum-selective multi-kinase inhibitor with a unique FGFR-binding mechanism. It potently inhibits FGFR2 fusion/rearrangement and acquired resistant mutations in pre-clinical models and early clinical studies in cholangiocarcinoma (CCA). Here we present the preliminary efficacy and safety of tinengotinib (TT-00420) in a phase II trial TT420C1206 (NCT04919642). Methods: Eligible patients (pts) with advanced/metastatic CCA exhausting standard treatment options received tinengotinib 10 mg QD. Pts were enrolled into four cohorts using historical FGFR alteration status: FGFR2 fusion(s) with primary progression on previous FGFR inhibitor (FGFRi) (A1) or progression after prior response to FGFRi (acquired resistance) (A2); non-fusion FGFR alteration(s) (B); or FGFR wild-type (FGFRwt, C). Primary endpoint was objective response rate (ORR) per RECIST version 1.1. Safety, PK parameters, and biomarker profile were evaluated and reviewed jointly with the efficacy outcomes. Adverse events (AEs) were graded per CTCAE version 5.0. Results: As of Sep 13, 2022, 25 pts with CCA were enrolled and dosed; 7 in A1, 6 in A2, 2 in B and 10 in C. Median age 61 [range 24-82] years old, 64% female, 93.3% had ≥ 3 prior treatment lines. 13 patients with ECOG 0 and 12 patients with ECOG 1 at baseline. Among 15 patients with historical FGFR alterations (13 fusions/rearrangement and 2 mutations), 93.3% had ≥ 1 prior FGFRi, and 3 pts (20.0%) had 2 prior FGFRi treatments. Eighteen pts were evaluable for tumor assessment at data cutoff date, including 4 in A1, 6 in A2, 1 in B and 7 in C. The median follow up was 15 weeks. In A2, 2 out of 6 pts (33%) achieved PR with tumor reductions of 34% and 54%. Overall DCR (CR or PR+SD) was 90% (9/10) in FGFR2 fusion/rearrangement pts; 100% in FGFR primary mutation pt (1/1); and 71% (5/7) in FGFRwt pts. One PR and 5 SDs lasted for more than 16 weeks. Among 25 treated pts, drug-related AEs occurred in 20 (80%) pts, including 7 (28%) with Grade (G) 1-2 AEs, 12 (48%) with G3 AEs, and 1 (4%) with G4 AE. Most frequently occurred G3/4 AEs were hypertension in 6 (24%) pts, including 5 (20%) with G3 and 1 (4%) with G4, G3 fatigue in 2 (8%) and G3 neutrophil count decreased in 2 (8%) pts. No drug-related G5 was observed. The efficacy and safety results observed were consistent with the previous reported data (NCT03654547) in CCA pts. The preliminary biomarker analysis suggests loss of resistant FGFR mutation on liquid biopsy post tinengotinib therapy. Further biomarker analysis will be updated at the presentation. Conclusions: Tinengotinib may result in promising clinical benefit for CCA pts in the setting of FGFRi-resistance. Tinengotinib-related toxicities were manageable. An ongoing phase II study will further provide safety, efficacy and biomarker evaluations for both FGFR resistant and FGFRwt CCA. Clinical trial information: NCT04919642.
