ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is looking at a new treatment approach for patients with advanced solid tumors that have specific genetic changes called FGFR1, FGFR2, or FGFR3 alterations. The study will test a combination of a medication called pemigatinib, which blocks these genetic changes, along with immune checkpoint inhibitors that help the immune system fight cancer. The goal is to see how effective and safe this combination is for patients who have not responded to standard treatments.

To be eligible for the trial, participants need to be at least 18 years old and have advanced solid tumors that cannot be surgically removed. They should have had previous treatments that did not work or caused unacceptable side effects. Additionally, they must have confirmed FGFR gene changes and be in relatively good health to participate. Those who join can expect regular check-ups and monitoring throughout the trial to assess their response to the treatment and any side effects. It's important to know that this trial is not yet recruiting patients, so there will be a wait before it begins.

• • Age ≥ 18 years;
• • Histologically or cytologically confirmed unresectable advanced solid tumors with failure or intolerance to standard treatments;
• • At least one measurable lesion per RECIST v1.1 criteria;
• • Gene testing confirms FGFR1/2/3 variants, including but not limited to mutations, fusions/rearrangements in solid tumors;
• • Patients have not previously used specific small molecule multi-target inhibitors of the FGFR pathway, as assessed by investigators, and have been treated with immune checkpoint inhibitors;
• • ECOG performance status of 0-1;
• • Expected survival time \> 3 months;
• * Laboratory criteria:
• • 1. Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥ 1.5 x 10⁹/L in the past 14 days without granulocyte colony-stimulating factor;
• • 2. Platelets ≥ 100 x 10⁹/L without transfusion in the past 14 days;
• • 3. Hemoglobin \> 9 g/dL in the last 14 days without transfusion or erythropoietin;
• • 4. Total bilirubin ≤ 1.5 x upper limit of normal (ULN), or total bilirubin \> ULN but direct bilirubin ≤ ULN;

• • Female subjects of reproductive age must have a negative urine or serum pregnancy test within 3 days prior to the first dose (Cycle 1, Day 1). If the urine test is inconclusive, a blood test is required. Non-reproductive females are defined as post-menopausal for at least one year or surgically sterile;
• • Subjects with reproductive potential must use contraception with an annual failure rate of less than 1% during treatment and for 120 days after the last study drug dose (or 180 days after the last chemotherapy dose).
• Exclusion Criteria:
• • Diagnosis of other malignancies within 3 years before the first dose, except for certain treated skin carcinomas and in-situ carcinomas;
• • Previous treatment with selective FGFR inhibitors;
• • Receipt of other investigational drugs within 21 days or antitumor drugs within 14 days before the first dose;
• • Unresolved toxicity from prior treatments unless ≤ Grade 1 or related to alopecia or fatigue;
• • Known symptomatic CNS metastasis or carcinomatous meningitis. Stable patients post-treatment with no evidence of progression may be eligible if steroid-free for at least 14 days;
• • History of allogeneic organ or hematopoietic stem cell transplantation;
• * Abnormal laboratory parameters:
• • 1. Serum phosphate \> 1.5 x ULN;
• • 2. Elevated serum calcium or albumin-adjusted calcium outside the reference range;
• • Known HIV infection or positive HIV test;
• • Active or poorly controlled serious infection;
• • Need for drainage treatment for pleural effusion, ascites, or pericardial effusion;
• • Active hepatitis B or C infection with high viral load, or positive HBsAg or anti-HCV antibodies. Patients on antiviral therapy must meet lower thresholds;
• • Significant uncontrolled heart disease, including recent MI, severe heart failure, or uncontrolled arrhythmias;
• • Clinically significant ECG changes or history of significant cardiac issues; Screening QTcF interval \> 480 ms, or JTc interval if applicable, must be ≤ 340 ms;
• • Uncontrolled hypertension despite treatment;
• • Hepatic encephalopathy, hepatorenal syndrome, or Child-Pugh grade B or higher cirrhosis;
• • Major surgery within 4 weeks before the first dose or planned major surgery during the study;
• • Unresolved complications from prior surgery;
• • Pregnant or breastfeeding women, or those planning to become pregnant during the study period and for safety follow-up;
• • Radiotherapy within 4 weeks before the first dose, except for non-CNS palliative radiotherapy with a 2-week washout period;
• • History of systemic electrolyte imbalance or ectopic soft tissue calcification;
• • Clinically significant corneal or retinal disease;
• • Use of potent CYP3A4 inhibitors or inducers within 14 days or 5 half-lives before the first dose;
