A Phase 2 Study of BGJ398 in Patients With Recurrent GBM

This is an open-label non-randomized, multicenter, phase II study of BGJ398 administered to adult patients with histologically confirmed GBM and/or other glioma subtypes with FGFR1-TACC1, FGFR3-TACC3 fusion and/or activating mutation in FGFR1, 2 or 3.

About this study

Patients were enrolled in two groups. Group 1 enrolled patients who are not candidates for surgery. Group 2 was planned to enroll patients who are surgical candidates. Patients from both groups were evaluated for tumor response and progression by MRI every 8 weeks until disease progression or discontinuation from study using RANO criteria.

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • Patients with histologically confirmed GBM and/or other glioma subtypes at the time of diagnosis or prior relapse.
  • Written documentation of local or central laboratory determination of amplification or translocation to FGFR1-TACC1, FGFR3-TACC-3 fusion and/or activating mutation in FGFR1, FGFR2,or FGFR3
  • RANO defined tumor progression by MRI in comparison to a prior scan
  • Patients must have received prior external beam radiotherapy and temozolomide.

Exclusion criteria

  • History of another primary malignancy
  • Prior or current treatment with a FGFR inhibitor
  • Neurological symptoms related to underlying disease requiring increasing doses of corticosteroids
  • Patients must not be taking Enzyme Inducing Anti-Epileptic Drug (EIAED). If previously on an EIAED, the patient must be off of it for at least two weeks prior to study treatment.

Treatment and study plan

BGJ398

Drug

Capsule for oral use.

Primary outcomes

  1. Progression Free Survival

    Time frame: 6 months

    To assess the anti-tumor activity of BGJ398 for patients with GBM and/or other glioma subtypes that harbor FGFR1-TACC1, FGFR3-TACC3 fusion and/or activating mutation in FGFR1, 2 or 3 based on PFS6 (PFS rate at 6 months as defined by RANO criteria as assessed by the investigator)

Secondary outcomes

  1. Overall Response Rate

    Time frame: 5 years

    To further assess the anti-tumor activity of BGJ398 for patients with GBM with an amplification, translocation, or activating mutation in FGFR1,2,3 or 4, based on Objective Response Rate (ORR - patients with measurable disease - as defined by RANO criteria as assessed by the investigator

  2. Overall Survival

    Time frame: 5 years

    To further assess the anti-tumor activity of BGJ398 for patients with GBM and/or other glioma subtypes that harbor FGFR1-TACC1, FGFR3-TACC3 fusion and/or activating mutation in FGFR1, 2 and 3 based on Overall Survival

  3. Safety and Tolerability

    Time frame: 5 years

    Safety: type, frequency, and severity of AEs and SAEs; Tolerability: dose interruptions, reductions and dose intensity, and evaluations of laboratory values
