3603 Background: Debio 1347 is a selective oral inhibitor of FGFR 1-3 tyrosine kinases. It exhibited high antitumor activity in in vitro and in vivo tumor models with FGFR1-3 gene fusions. Here we report the results of the expansion portion of a Phase 1 study of advanced solid tumors patients (pts) harboring an FGFR1-3 gene fusion. Methods: Pts with advanced refractory solid tumors harboring an FGFR1-3 gene fusion were enrolled. Based on results from the dose escalation portion, pts received Debio1347 80 mg once daily (qd) in 28-day cycles. Pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics were evaluated. The data cut-off was October 8, 2019. Results: Among 18 pts enrolled, 5 had primary brain tumors (PBT), 5 had cholangiocarcinoma, 2 had urothelial cancer, 2 had colon cancer, 1 patient each lung neoplasm, gastric cancer, endometrial cancer and squamous cell carcinoma of the chest wall. Tumors harbored fusions with FGFR1 (n = 1), FGFR2 (n = 8), and FGFR3 (n = 9). All had prior systemic therapy (median 3 lines; range 1-4). The most common treatment emergent adverse events were fatigue (50%), hyperphosphatemia (44.4%), anemia (38.9%), alopecia (33.3%), nausea (33.3%), vomiting (33.3%), constipation (33.3%), and palmar-plantar erythrodysesthesia syndrome (22.2%). Blurred vision was reported in 1 pt. There were no findings on ocular exams compatible with retinal detachment. No grade 3 AE related to study drug were reported. One patient needed dose reduction due to grade 2 nails toxicity. In PK analysis, plasma steady-state was rapidly achieved and serum phosphate increase correlated with Debio 1347 plasma exposure, confirming target engagement at 80 mg qd. Median follow-up was 18 weeks. Partial responses were observed in 3 pts harboring an FGFR2 fusion: 1 out of 2 colon cancer and 2 out 5 cholangiocarcinoma. Median duration of response was 16.1 weeks (range: 8.4-22.8+). Overall disease control was observed in 11 out of 14 pts without PBT (79%). Median PFS was 18.3 weeks. No signs of activity were observed in the 5 patients with PBT, all with an FGFR3-TACC3 fusion. Conclusions: Debio 1347 at the recommended dose of 80 mg qd was generally well tolerated and showed signs of activity in solid tumors harboring an FGFR fusion. The FUZE phase 2 clinical trial of Debio 1347 is recruiting FGFR fusion-positive advanced solid tumors irrespectively of tumor histology, excluding PBT. Clinical trial information: NCT01948297 .

TPS3157 Background: Dysregulation of fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR) signaling by FGFR fusions is implicated in many cancers. Debio 1347 is a selective oral inhibitor of FGFR 1-3 tyrosine kinases. It exhibited high antitumor activity in in vitro and in vivo tumor models with FGFR1-3 gene fusions. Preliminary data from an ongoing phase 1 trial show efficacy and tolerability in patients (pts) harboring FGFR 1-3 fusion irrespectively of tumor type. We present the design for a multicenter, basket, 2-stage, adaptive single arm Phase 2 trial investigating Debio 1347 in pts with solid tumors harboring FGFR1-3 fusion/rearrangement. Methods: Adults with locally advanced/unresectable or metastatic tumors with documented FGFR1-3 gene fusion/rearrangement who require systemic therapy and have progression after ≥1 prior standard treatment or have no satisfactory alternative treatment option are eligible. Three cohorts are included: biliary tract cancer (cohort 1), urothelial cancer (cohort 2) and all other solid tumors (cohort 3). Primary brain tumors are excluded. Other key exclusion criteria include prior treatment with FGFR1-3 selective inhibitor; clinically significant corneal/retinal disorder; history of calcium/phosphate homeostasis disorder or systemic mineral imbalance with ectopic soft tissue calcification, and symptomatic/unstable brain metastases < 1 month before enrollment. Genomic screening of tumor tissue is done at local or central laboratory with post-hoc central confirmation by RNA sequencing. Eligible pts will receive Debio 1347, 80 mg PO once daily in 28-day cycles until occurrence of progression or unacceptable toxicity. Primary Endpoint is objective response rate (ORR) based on independent central review using RECIST v.1.1. The targeted sample size (N=125) will provide approximately 90% power to reject H0: ORR ≤ 15% at an overall 5% significance level based on an expected ORR of 30% in at least one of the cohorts. Secondary endpoints are: duration of response, disease control rate, progression-free survival, overall survival, safety, tolerability, and quality of life. An interim analysis for futility and homogeneity will be performed after 27 evaluable pts. PK sparse sampling is performed to assess exposure-response relationships with efficacy and safety. Biomarkers of response and resistance will be explored. Accrual is opened in US, EU, Asia and Australia. Clinical trial information: NCT03834220.

3004 Background: ABBV-085 is an ADC (conjugated to monomethyl auristatin E, drug:antibody ratio of 2:1) directed against leucine-rich repeat containing 15 (LRRC15), a type 1 transmembrane protein highly expressed on the surface of sarcomas and cancer-associated fibroblasts in stroma of many other cancers. ABBV-085 induced antitumor activity in both in vitro and xenograft models of sarcoma. This phase 1, first-in-human, 2-part study assessed the safety/tolerability of ABBV-085 in patients (pts) with advanced solid tumors (NCT02565758). Methods: Eligible pts (≥18 yr; advanced solid tumors) received ABBV-085 intravenously in a 3+3 dose-escalation (DE) design; 0.3- to 4.8-mg/kg doses every 2 wk (8 cohorts). Pharmacokinetics (PK) were assessed in cycle 1 and cycle 3. Results: As of Dec 2018, 78 pts were enrolled in monotherapy DE and dose-expansion (EXP) cohorts (≤2.7 mg/kg, n = 21; 3.6 mg/kg, n = 45; 4.2 mg/kg, n = 6; 4.8 mg/kg, n = 6); median age: 58 yr (range 21–84); median treatment (Tx) duration: 6.2 wk (range 0.3–54.4). Overall, 77 (98.7%) pts reported ≥1 Tx-emergent adverse events (TEAEs). Fatigue (48.7%) was most common; 19 (24.4%) pts reported grade 1/2 blurred vision (reversible on study discontinuation). Grade ≥3 TEAEs were reported in 56 (71.8%) pts; anemia (14.1%) was the most common. Dose-limiting toxicities occurred at 3.6 mg/kg (n = 1; anemia), 4.2 mg/kg (n = 1; hypertriglyceridemia), and 4.8 mg/kg (n = 2; ileus and nausea); 3.6 mg/kg was chosen as the recommended phase 1b dose (RP1bD). PK exhibited dose-proportional increase in the area under the curve after single-dose administration; half-life was 2.84 days at the RP1bD. Of the 27 sarcoma pts (DE [n = 8]/EXP [n = 19] cohorts; undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma [n = 10], osteosarcoma [n = 10], and other sarcomas [n = 7]) treated at the RP1bD, 4 (14.8%) had confirmed partial response (PR; 2 [7.4%] unconfirmed), 8 (29.6%) had stable disease, 11 (40.7%) had progressive disease; 2 (7.4%) were not evaluable. The median duration of response (confirmed responders) was 7.6 mo (95% CI: 5.6–9.2). Updated safety and efficacy data will be reported. Conclusions: ABBV-085 was well tolerated with durable PR observed in pts with advanced sarcomas. Clinical trial information: NCT02565758.

TPS3161 Background: The p53 pathway has been implicated in antitumor immunity, including antigen presentation and T-cell proliferation. Loss of p53 function can increase resistance to immunotherapy across many tumor types. Eprenetapopt (eprenet) is a small molecule that stabilizes the folded structure of p53, resulting in activation of mutant p53 and stabilization of wild-type (WT) p53. It also targets the cellular redox homeostasis, resulting in induction of apoptosis in tumor cells. In vivo, mice carrying supernumerary copies of the TP53 gene harbor a pro-inflammatory tumor microenvironment, an effect recapitulated in TP53 normal-copy mice treated with eprenetapopt. Combining eprenetapopt and anti-PD1 or anti-CTLA4 therapy resulted in enhanced tumor growth inhibition and improved survival in TP53 WT mice inoculated with B16 melanoma and MC38 colon adenocarcinoma cells . Based on these results, we hypothesized that eprenet-induced p53 stabilization may augment response to immunotherapy. To test this hypothesis, we are conducting a phase 1b/2 study of eprenet in combination with pembrolizumab (eprenet+pembro) in pts with solid tumors. Methods: The primary objectives are to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) and to assess the safety and tolerability of eprenet+pembro in pts with advanced solid tumors. The secondary objectives are to estimate the anti-tumor activity and to describe the pharmacokinetics of the combination. Exploratory objectives include assessing predictive and pharmacodynamic markers of response. The study includes a safety lead-in with a 3+3 dose de-escalation design for pts with advanced solid tumors with known tumor TP53 mutation status ( TP53 WT is acceptable) (max 18 pts), followed by expansion cohorts in pts with NSCLC, gastric/GEJ and urothelial cancer (max 100 pts). In expansion, pts with urothelial and gastric cancers must be naïve to anti-PD-1/ L1 therapy. Eprenet is given IV once daily on Days 1–4 while pembro is administered on Day 3 of each 21-day cycle. The RP2D of eprenet+pembro is considered the dose at which ≤ 1 of 6 pts in a cohort has a dose-limiting toxicity (DLT). Primary endpoints are occurrence of DLTs, adverse events (AEs) and serious AEs with eprenet+pembro. Key secondary endpoints are best objective response, progression free survival and overall survival. Exploratory endpoints include gene mutations by next generation sequencing (including TP53), mRNA expression, multiplex immunohistochemistry and transcriptomics, multiplex flow cytometry on peripheral blood mononuclear cells and cytokines in serum. Continuous monitoring of toxicity will be conducted. The trial opened in May 2020 and is actively enrolling patients. Clinical trial information: NCT04383938.

TPS2616 Background: FGFR inhibition is a promising and clinically proven therapeutic approach in a number of solid tumors where genetic alterations of FGFR drive oncogenesis. PRN1371 is a highly selective oral, irreversible inhibitor of FGFR1-4 that exhibits high potency in cancer cell lines harboring FGFR alterations, including mutations and fusions. Methods: Part A of this phase 1 clinical trial explores ascending doses of PRN1371 in adult patients with advanced solid tumors in a "3 + 3" design, where cohorts of three patients are studied at each level until additional patients need to be added to better assess safety, establish the maximum tolerated dose and define the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D). PRN1371 is dosed once or twice daily in continuous, 28-day cycles until disease progression. Part B studies include two or three expansion cohorts of different tumor types, 10 patients each with FGFR1-4 gene mutations, fusions, or amplification at the RP2D. The on-target effect of serum phosphorus and FGF23 increases are measured as potential pharmacodynamic biomarkers. Elevated serum phosphorus is managed with oral phosphate binding medications and a low phosphate diet, with dose interruptions and use of acetazolamide if certain thresholds are exceeded. Circulating tumor DNA from patients at baseline and during follow up is analyzed for FGFR genetic alterations. Pre and on-treatment tumor biopsies in Part B will be tested for a panel of pharmacodynamic biomarkers of FGFR inhibition. Clinical trial information: NCT02608125.

e22114 Background: Due to chronic hypoxia cancer cells are growing in a more acidic environment compared to physiological tissue. Recent preclinical in vitro and in vivo data have shown direct pH-sensitive anti-tumor activity by pore formation and apoptosis when synergistically acting combinations of Diflunisal, Paraaminosalicylic acid (PAS) and Aspirin were applied. Therefore, a pilot study was performed to evaluate its clinical relevance and its update is presented. Methods: A total of 65 patients (n=65) with advanced solid tumors and the lack of standard treatments were treated with a protocol consisting of 3-5 weeks with 2 daily i.v. infusions of Diflunisal and Aspirin for 4 days per week after they had signed an informed consent form. Response evaluation was assessed by PET/CT differentiating in metabolic and metric (RECIST) response and tumor marker where available. Results: Out of 65 patients treated 8 patients suffered from colorectal cancer, 17 from breast cancer, 6 from ovarian cancer, 3 from lung cancer, 3 from gastric cancer, 3 from glioblastoma, 3 from CUP, 1 from hemangioendothelioma, 1 from pleuramesothelioma, 1 from non-Hodgkin lymphoma, 2 from pancreatic cancer, 1 from choledochus cancer, 3 from prostate cancer, 5 from sarcomas, 2 from head and neck cancer, 1 from melanoma, 1 from cervical cancer, and 1 from thyroid cancer, respectively. Side effects related to the therapy have been fatigue grade I (30%), nausea grade I (13,3%), tinnitus (25%), hypertension (2,5%), dyspnea (3,3%) and burning sensation in tumor areas (65%). 33 patients were evaluable for metric response, 20 for metabolic and 19 for tumor marker response assessment. For tumor marker follow up 11 % had a CR, 53 % a PR, 26 % a SD of > 3 month and 11 % a PD. For metric follow up 3 % had a CR, 33 % a PR, 39 % a SD of > 3 month and 24 % a PD. For metabolic follow up 10 % had a CR, 35 % a PR, 35 % a SD of > 3 month and 20 % a PD. Conclusions: This continuing pilot study confirms a direct pH-sensitive synergistic anti-tumor activity of intravenous Diflunisal, PAS and Aspirin in patients with advanced solid tumors. Therefore, a further evaluation in a controlled clinical phase II study should be performed.

3081 Background: E is an investigational, novel, chimeric monoclonal IgG1 antibody derived from an immunogenic neoantigen with sequence homology to MUC5AC that is preferentially expressed with exquisite specificity to pancreatic cancer and CRC. Its mechanism of action is via antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC). The efficacy and safety of E was evaluated in a single-arm, open-label, phase 1/2 clinical trial of adult pts with refractory mCRC. Methods: Pts were selected based on > 20% expression of tumor antigen, as measured by immunohistochemistry. Based on phase 1 results, E was administered 3 mg/kg IV every 2 weeks until unacceptable toxicity or disease progression. Primary endpoint was overall survival (OS). Serum cytokine levels were analyzed at baseline, day 4, and day 15. E-mediated ADCC of CD16 genotype V/V, V/F, and F/F pt PBMCs was measured with an IN-111 release assay using the E target-expressing ASPC-1 pancreatic cancer cell line. Results: Fifty-seven and 63 pts were evaluable for OS and safety, respectively. Median OS was significantly longer than historical control: 6.8 vs 5.0 months (mo); p = 0.007; 95% CI: 5.39,8.02. Three pts were alive at end of study (21, 21, and 24 mo); 21 pts survived ≥ 12 mo. Pts had a median of 4 prior therapies (range 2-9); 25% had received regorafenib. Forty-seven pts were evaluable by RECIST, and 20 (43%) had stable disease of target lesions at end of first course (day 57). E was well tolerated, with < 2% grade 3 and no grade 4 toxicities. There were no trends in serum cytokine and chemokine levels. Analysis of 56 samples (8 V/V, 26 V/F, 17 F/F, and 5 undetermined) showed that V/V PBMCs had significantly higher E-mediated ADCC than PBMCs harboring other genotypes. No correlation between CD16 polymorphism and pt outcome was observed. Conclusions: E demonstrated excellent tolerability and encouraging OS in this heavily pretreated population. Correlative in vitro data suggest that E can mediate higher levels of ADCC activity in individuals with a V/V versus other genotypes. The lack of correlation between CD16 polymorphism and pt outcomes in this study suggests that other immune-related factors (under investigation) may impact the efficacy of E in vivo. Clinical trial information: NCT01040000.

TPS3146 Background: Tropomysin receptor kinase A (TrkA) is a protein encoded by the NTRK1 gene. NTRK fusions involving the kinase domain are oncogenic for multiple tumor types and larotrectinib was recently approved for advanced solid tumors harboring NTRK gene fusions. Larotrectinib, an ATP-competitive, reversible pan-TrkA/B/C inhibitor, has shown impressive response rates in patients harboring these fusions; however, resistance can develop due to acquired ATP-site mutations. This has been previously identified in other oncogenic driver kinases such as ALK and EGFR treated with ATP-competitive kinase inhibitors. A newly approved allosteric ALK/EGFR inhibitor brigatinib was able to clinically overcome acquired resistance of many ATP-competitive ALK/EGFR inhibitors (1). Also, irreversible EGFR inhibitors such as afatinib (ATP-competitive) were active against tumors resistant to first-generation inhibitors (2), although their efficacy can be compromised by acquired ATP-site mutations (3). VMD-928 is the first oral small-molecule TrkA (NTRK1) selective inhibitor with dual allosteric and irreversible mechanisms of action. It inhibits TrkA non-competitively at an allosteric (non-ATP) site and has no resistance in vitro to acquired ATP-site mutations such as G667C. VMD-928 in vitro has little or no activity against 348 other kinases including TrkB (NTRK2) and TrkC (NTRK3). We are conducting the first time in human phase 1 trial of oral VMD-928, a novel allosteric and irreversible TrkA selective inhibitor. Methods: This is an open label, Phase 1 study investigating the safety, pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) of oral VMD-928 in adults with advanced solid tumors or lymphoma (NCT03556228). In part 1 of the study, an accelerated titration scheme will be utilized to determine the recommended phase 2 dose and evaluate PK / PD of VMD-928. In part 2, expansion cohorts including patients with thymic, pancreatic, triple-negative breast carcinoma, or solid tumors with TrkA alterations will be accrued to further evaluate safety and efficacy. Part 3 of the study will characterize the biologically active dose. The study is open and accruing patients at City of Hope. Clinical trial information: NCT03556228.

TPS3157 Background: c-MET (hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) receptor) overexpression, either by gene amplification, or mutation is associated with oncogenic transformation in numerous malignancies including lung, gastric, skin, renal, colorectal, and pancreatic cancers. ABN401 inhibits the activation of c-MET by reversibly interfering with the binding of c-Met tyrosine kinase to adenosine triphosphate (ATP) and blocking the receptor's downstream signaling that has demonstrated efficacy in NSCLC and gastric cancer in mouse xenograft and PDx models. This clinical trial is in progress in patients with advanced cancers. Methods: ABN401 is being evaluated in an open-label, non-randomized, dose-escalation (phase 1) study in patients with advanced solid tumors, and dose-expansion (phase 2) in patients with targeted indications and c-MET biomarker expression (NCT04052971). The phase 1 explores ascending daily doses of oral ABN401 monotherapy in 21-day cycles to identify the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D). A preplanned extension (pilot expansion) study has been initiated based on predefined positive efficacy signals at intermediate doses up to 10 NSCLC patients who have c-MET alteration. Once RP2D is determined, the phase 2 expansion of up to 10-29 patients in four specific tumor-type cohorts is planned, utilizing a Simon's optimal two-stage design to evaluate the clinical activity of ABN401. ABN401-001 study began enrolling patients in August 2019 and is ongoing in Korean and Australia. Dose escalation up to cohort 4 has been completed, enrollment to cohort 5 began in November 2020. AEs are assessed according to CTCAE v5. Tumor response is determined according to RECIST 1.1 criteria and safety findings reviewed by the DRC, which will determine the RP2D and MTD. Key Phase 1 eligibility criteria include 1) histological or cytological diagnosis of melanoma or any type of carcinoma or sarcoma and 2) refractory metastatic disease, or refractory locally advanced disease not amenable to local therapy. For the extension (pilot expansion) study, patients must have NSCLC with MET exon 14 skipping, MET amplification and/or c-MET overexpression. An exploratory study is being conducted for co-development of a companion diagnostic (CDx) system including a CTC device and ddPCR kit through liquid biopsy. Clinical trial information: NCT04052971.

3001 Background: Glutamine metabolism is frequently deregulated in different cancers, including tumors harboring KEAP1/ NFE2L2 mutations or those expressing low Asparagine Synthetase (ASNS) levels. IACS-6274 is a potent oral GLS1 inhibitor discovered at MD Anderson Cancer Center with excellent pharmacokinetics (PK) and antitumor activity in biomarker-defined preclinical models. Methods: Pts with advanced solid tumors received IACS-6274 BID at escalating doses using a phase 1 BOIN design. PK and pharmacodynamic (PD) studies were conducted in serial tumor and/or blood samples. Peripheral glutamine metabolism was assessed in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) to assess glutamine metabolism via 13C-isotope labelling. Predictive biomarker studies included tumor analyses for KEAP1, NFE2L2, STK11, NF1 mutations and IHC for ASNS loss. Results: 22 pts with advanced ovarian (n=8), NSCLC (n=7), melanoma (n=2), leiomyosarcoma, gastric, anal, endometrial and HNSCC (all n=1) received IACS-6274 at 20 (n=1), 40 (n=1), 80 (n=1), 120 (n=4), 180 (n=11) or 240 (n=4) mg BID. Molecular alterations assessed included pts with ASNS loss (n=6), STK11 (n=5), KEAP1 (n=5), NFE2L2 (n=4) and NF1 (n=1). Prior lines of therapies: 2-4 (n=12); ≥5 (n=10). Common IACS-6274-related adverse events included G1-2 photopsia (n=7), photophobia (n=7), increased creatinine (n=4) and AST (n=4). Less common G3 toxicities at 180 and 240 mg included reversible nausea (n=3), vomiting and fatigue (n=2). Dose-limiting toxicities of G3 acute renal failure and PRES syndrome were seen in one patient at 240mg BID, which fully resolved. Plasma exposures showed a dose-dependent increase across doses with observed half-life ̃12 hrs. Patients at 180mg displayed steady-state exposures at C1D14 with Cmax of 45.8 μM +/- 18.6 μM and average AUC(0-12hrs) of 382.48 h*μM +/- 159.27 h*μM. Glutamate to glutamine ratios decreased in PBMC samples in pts at C1D14 vs baseline; pts at 120, 180 and 240 mg had inhibition of 82.5% (P<0.0001), 83.9% (P<0.0001) and 85.3% (P<0.0001), respectively, exceeding doses predicted to be efficacious in preclinical models. A robust PK/PD relationship was established across doses (P<0.0001). The recommended phase 2 dose was 180mg BID. Best RECISTv1.1 response was stable disease (SD) in 17 of 20 evaluable pts. Disease control rate at 12 weeks was 60%. Durable RECISTv1.1 SD ≥6 months +/- tumor regression were seen in pts with advanced ASNS-loss ovarian cancer (n=2), PD-1/L1-exposed melanoma (n=2) and NF1 mutant leiomyosarcoma (n=1). Conclusions: IACS-6274 was well tolerated at biologically active doses with good human PK, significant PD target modulation and preliminary antitumor activity observed. The clinical trial assessment of rational combinations to maximize benefit in molecularly-selected pts is initiating. Clinical trial information: NCT03894540.
