Patient case: 26-year-old male with Liposarcoma. Genetic variant: MDM2 Amplification. Other conditions: None.

Clinical trial: A Dose Finding Study Followed by a Safety and Efficacy Study in Patients With Advanced Solid Tumors or Multiple Myeloma With FGF/FGFR-Related Abnormalities

Summary: The purpose of this study is to determine the safety of TAS-120 and determine the most appropriate dose for the subsequent phase 2 safety and efficacy study in patients with advanced solid tumors and multiple myeloma with genetic abnormalities.
  The progression of cancers is caused by a complex series of multiple genetic and molecular events leading to changes in the patients DNA. The fibroblast growth factor/fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGF/FGFR) signaling pathway is important for normal organ, vascular and skeletal development. However, FGFR gene abnormalities have been linked to various cancers.
  TAS-120 is a highly potent, selective small molecule inhibitor of FGFR and is therefore is being studied as a therapy for cancer.

Detailed description: Background and rationale for study:
  -  Activating fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR) gene abnormalities are reported in various cancers including non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) (FGFR1 amplification), breast (FGFR1 and 2 amplification), gastric (FGFR2 amplification), bladder (FGFR3 activating mutation or gene translocation), endometrial (FGFR2 activating mutation), multiple myeloma (FGFR3 gene translocation), and rhabdomyosarcoma (FGFR4-activating mutation).
  -  TAS-120 is a novel, highly potent and selective small molecule FGFR inhibitor.
  Phase 1 Dose Escalation:
  Primary
  • To investigate the safety and to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and the recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) of TAS-120 in patients with advanced solid tumors with or without FGF/FGFR abnormalities for whom no available therapy is likely to convey clinical benefit.
  Secondary
  -  To investigate the clinical pharmacokinetics (PK) of TAS-120.
  -  To investigate the clinical pharmacodynamics of TAS-120.
  -  To determine any preliminary antitumor activity observed with TAS-120.
  Phase 1 Expansion and Phase 2:
  Primary •To investigate the efficacy of the TAS-120 RP2D in patients with advanced solid tumors or multiple myeloma, with FGF/FGFR abnormalities for whom no available therapy is likely to convey clinical benefit.
  Secondary
  •To investigate the safety of TAS-120.
