Abstract

430 Background: Pts with CCA progressing after first-line therapy have limited treatment options. We report an updated analysis of the ongoing LUC2001 open-label, multicenter, phase 2a study (NCT02699606) investigating the efficacy and safety of erdafitinib in Asian pts with advanced CCA and FGFR alterations who progressed after ≥1 prior systemic treatment. Methods: Eligible adults (aged ≥18 years) received erdafitinib 8 mg once daily (QD) with pharmacodynamically guided up-titration to 9 mg QD. The primary endpoint was objective response rate (ORR; RECIST 1.1); secondary endpoints included best overall response (BOR), disease control rate (DCR), duration of response (DOR), progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), and safety. Survival estimates were determined by the Kaplan–Meier method. Results: Of 232 patients with CCA who underwent molecular screening, 39 (16.8%) had FGFR alterations (21 [9.1%] fusions and 19 [8.2%] mutations). Overall, 22 (9.5%) eligible pts (median age, 52 [range, 29–69] years) were enrolled and received treatment. Median follow-up was 22.4 (range, 2.3–47.0) months; median treatment duration was 6.2 (range, 1.5–35.6) months. All 22 pts received ≥1 line of prior systemic therapy and 12 (55.0%) pts had ≥2 prior lines of therapy. The ORR was 40.9% (95% CI, 20.7%–63.6%) and median time to response was 1.8 (range, 1.5–5.6) months. Median DOR was 7.3 (95% CI, 3.7–17.5) months, median PFS was 5.6 (95% CI, 3.6–12.7) months, and median OS was 40.2 (95% CI: 9.9–not estimable) months (Table). Responses were observed in 8/14 pts with FGFR fusions and 1/8 pts with FGFR mutations and in pts who received 1 or ≥2 prior lines of therapy. All 22 pts had ≥1 treatment-emergent adverse event (TEAE), the most common being dry mouth (15/22 [68.2%]) and stomatitis (14/22 [63.6%]). Grade ≥3 TEAEs occurred in 15/22 (68.2%) pts (11/22 [50.0%] were treatment related), of which the most common were stomatitis (3/22 [13.6%]) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) increased (3/22 [13.6%]); 11/22 (50.0%) pts had ≥1 serious TEAE (1/22 [4.5%] pts had a serious treatment-related TEAE). A TEAE leading to death occurred in 1 patient (sepsis; not treatment-related). Conclusions: Asian pts with advanced CCA and FGFR alterations treated with erdafitinib had durable efficacy and a manageable safety profile, supporting the earlier findings of erdafitinib benefit in this population.
