Updated results of the FOENIX-CCA2 trial: Efficacy and safety of futibatinib in intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (iCCA) harboring FGFR2 fusions/rearrangements.

4009 Background: Survival outcomes are historically poor in patients (pts) with advanced/metastatic iCCA, with median overall survival (mOS) times of approximately 1 year with first-line gemcitabine plus cisplatin and approximately 6 months with second-line chemotherapy. Futibatinib, a highly selective, irreversible FGFR1–4 inhibitor, demonstrated efficacy with durable responses in pts with iCCA harboring FGFR2 fusion/rearrangements in the pivotal FOENIX-CCA2 phase 2 study (NCT02052778). At the primary analysis of this trial (data cutoff: October 1, 2020), an objective response rate (ORR) of 41.7% was observed, with a median duration of response (mDOR) of 9.7 mo. Here, we report updated efficacy (including mature OS data) and safety data from the final analysis with an additional 8 mo of follow-up. Methods: FOENIX-CCA2 was a single-arm phase 2 study that enrolled pts with advanced/metastatic iCCA with FGFR2 fusion/rearrangement and progressive disease (PD) after ≥1 prior treatment (tx; including gemcitabine plus platinum-based chemotherapy). Pts received futibatinib 20 mg once daily until PD/intolerability. The primary endpoint was ORR per RECIST v1.1 by independent central review. Secondary endpoints were DOR, disease control rate (DCR), progression-free survival (PFS), OS, safety, and patient-reported outcomes. Results: At the time of the final data cutoff (May 29, 2021), median follow-up was 25.0 mo, and 96/103 pts (93%) had discontinued tx. The median number of tx cycles was 13.0 for a median tx duration of 9.1 mo. The confirmed ORR was 41.7% (43/103) and thereby the same as of the primary analysis, as was the DCR (at 82.5%). The ORR was consistent across pt subgroups. The mDOR was 9.5 mo, and 74% of responses lasted ≥6 mo. mPFS was 8.9 mo, with a 12-mo PFS rate of 35.4%. Mature mOS was 20.0 mo, with a 12-mo OS rate of 73.1% . No new safety signals were identified. Common tx-related adverse events (TRAEs) included hyperphosphatemia (85%), alopecia (33%), dry mouth (30%), diarrhea (28%), dry skin (27%), and fatigue (25%). TRAEs resulted in tx discontinuation in 4 pts (4%). No tx-related deaths occurred. Quality of life was maintained from baseline to tx cycle 13. Conclusions: Findings from the final analysis of FOENIX-CCA2 confirm the results of the primary analysis and reinforce the durable efficacy and continued tolerability of futibatinib in previously treated pts with advanced/metastatic iCCA harboring FGFR2 fusion/rearrangements. Mature OS data were consistent with data from the primary analysis and far exceed historical data in this patient population. Clinical trial information: NCT02052778.
