826 Background: Targeting oncogenic KIT and PDGFRA mutations revolutionized treatment of patients (pts) with advanced GIST; however, nearly all pts succumb to resistant disease. Avapritinib is a potent and selective kinase inhibitor with broad activity against oncogenic KIT/PDGFRA mutants, including PDGFRA D842V and other primary or secondary resistance mutations. Results from the phase 1 NAVIGATOR (NCT02508532) study of avapritinib in pts with advanced GIST are presented. Methods: Adult pts with unresectable PDGFRA D842V or other mutant GIST who progressed on imatinib and ≥1 other tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) were treated with oral, daily, continuous avapritinib. Adverse events (AE) and response by mRECIST 1.1 per central radiology were assessed. Overall population safety (30-600 mg starting doses) and efficacy in the response-evaluable 4L+ and PDGFRA Exon 18 (Ex 18) populations treated at the MTD (400 mg)/RP2D (300 mg) were analyzed. Results: As of 16 Nov 2018, 237 pts [172 KIT, 62 PDGFRA Ex 18 [56 D842V, 6 non-D842V), 2 PDGFRA N659K, 1 missing] were enrolled including 111 in the 4L+ population (primarily KIT, median 4 prior TKI) and 43 in the Ex 18 population (median 1 prior TKI). The 4L+ ORR was 22% [1 CR, 23 PR (1 pending)], and 52 SD with mDOR of 10.2 months (95% CI: 7.2–NE). The Ex 18 ORR was 86% [3 CR, 34 PR (1 pending)] and 5 SD; mDOR was not reached (95% CI: 11.3–NE). Most AEs were grade 1–2, most commonly nausea (63%), fatigue (58%), anemia (49%), periorbital edema (42%), diarrhea (40%), vomiting (40%), decreased appetite (38%), increased lacrimation (33%), peripheral edema (33%) and memory impairment (most common cognitive AE, 29%). 10% of pts discontinued due to a related AE. Grade 3–4 related AE ≥ 2% were anemia, fatigue, hypophosphatemia, hyperbilirubinemia, neutropenia, and diarrhea. Conclusions: Avapritinib has important clinical activity in pts with advanced GIST who have no effective therapies. The ORR and DOR of avapritinib in 4L+ exceeds that of approved 2nd and 3rd line therapies and shows impressive activity in D842V and other Ex 18 mutant PDGFRA GIST. Results suggest avapritinib has the potential to change the treatment paradigm of pts with advanced GIST. Clinical trial information: NCT02508532.

3044 Background: XL647 is an orally bioavailable small molecule inhibitor of multiple receptor tyrosine kinases involved in tumor cell growth, angiogenesis, and metastasis, including EGFR (erbB1), erbB2, VEGFR2/KDR, and EphB4. Methods: Patients (pts) with ASM were enrolled in successive cohorts to receive XL647 orally as a single dose on day 1 with PK sampling, followed by 5 continuous daily doses starting on day 4 with additional PK sampling. Pts then continued to receive XL647 for 5 consecutive days, followed by a break, with cycles repeating every 14 days. Tumor imaging was conducted at baseline, after the first 3 or 4 cycles, and then after every 4 cycles. Pts were allowed to stay on-study in the absence of unacceptable toxicity until evidence of disease progression. Results: A total of 37 pts have been treated across 9 dose levels to date: 0.06, 0.12, 0.19, 0.28, 0.39, 0.78, 1.56, 3.12, 4.68, and 7.0 mg/kg. One pt at 3.12 mg/kg had a dose limiting toxicity (DLT) of asymptomatic QTc prolongation on electrocardiogram, resulting in expansion of that cohort. The first two pts who received 7.0 mg/kg experienced DLTs of grade 3 diarrhea, requiring dose reduction. Both pts from the 7.0 mg/kg cohort tolerated 4.68 mg/kg well. Expansion of the 4.68 mg/kg cohort to 6 pts occurred without further DLTs and this is considered the maximum tolerated dose (MTD). One serious adverse event, grade 4 pulmonary embolism, was considered possibly related to study treatment in a pt dosed at 0.28 mg/kg. PK analysis indicates that XL647 shows approximately dose-proportional exposure, a mean time to maximal concentration (tmax) of 6–9 hours and an elimination half-life of 50–70 hours. To date, 1 pt (non-small cell lung cancer [NSCLC]) from cohort 1 had a partial response and 7 others (NSCLC [2], chordoma [2], adenoid cystic carcinoma, adrenocortical carcinoma, colorectal) have had prolonged stable disease (>3 months). Conclusions: XL647 has been well tolerated. An MTD of 4.68 mg/kg oral dosing for 5 consecutive days every 14 days has been established. Exploration of additional dosing schedules is ongoing, including continuous daily dosing. [Table: see text]
