Eligibility Details:
Inclusion Criteria:
1. Signed written informed consent granted prior to initiation of any study-specific
procedures
2. 18 years of age or older
3. Histologically or cytologically confirmed locally advanced, inoperable (where surgery
is not indicated due to disease extension, co-morbidities, or other technical
reasons), or metastatic iCCA or mixed histology tumors (combined
hepatocellular-cholangiocarcinoma [cHCC-CCA])
4. Substudy 1: FGFR2 gene fusion status based on the following assessments:
1. If central laboratory designated by Sponsor:
Positive FISH test; and/or
2. If non-central laboratory:
i) Positive FISH or NGS test: patients may be enrolled and may start dosing, but
central confirmation is required* ii) Negative FISH or NGS test: tissue may be
submitted to the central laboratory designated by the Sponsor, and patients may only
be enrolled if the central test is positive
*Using standard protocols and approved by local IRB/EC, by CLIA or other similar
agency.
Substudy 2: FGFR2 mutation status based on local NGS testing performed or commissioned
by the respective study site using a validated test. For NGS testing, no central
laboratory will be established for the purpose of Substudy 2.
5. Received at least one regimen of prior systemic therapy and then experienced
documented radiographic progression
6. Measurable disease by RECIST version 1.1 criteria
7. ECOG performance status ≤ 1
8. Adequate organ functions as indicated by the following laboratory values (based on
screening visit values from the central laboratory).
- Hematological
- Hemoglobin (Hgb) ≥ 9.0 g/dL
- Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥ 1.5 x 109/L
- Platelet count ≥ 75 x 109/L
- International normalized ratio (INR) 0.8 to upper limit of normal (ULN) or ≤
3 for subjects receiving anticoagulant therapy such as Coumadin or heparin
- Hepatic
- Total bilirubin ≤ 2 x ULN
- AST and ALT ≤ 3 ULN (≤ 5 x ULN for subjects with liver metastases)
- Albumin ≥ 2.8 g/dL
- Renal
- Serum creatinine ≤ 1.5 x ULN
- Creatinine clearance of ≥ 60 mL/min as estimated by the Cockcroft-Gault
equation
9. Female and male patients of child-producing potential must agree to avoid becoming
pregnant or impregnating a partner, respectively, use double-barrier contraceptive
measures, oral contraception, or avoidance of intercourse, during the study*, and
until at least 120 for 90 days after the last dose of derazantinib.
*From the day of first study medication, or for oral contraception from 14 days before
first study medication.
Male patients are considered not to be of child-producing potential if they have
azoospermia (whether due to vasectomy or an underlying medical condition). Female
patients are considered not to be of child-producing potential if they are:
- postmenopausal* , or
- have had a hysterectomy and/or bilateral oophorectomy, bilateral salpingectomy or
bilateral tubal ligation/occlusion, at least 6 weeks prior to screening, or
- have a congenital or acquired condition that prevents childbearing.
Male or female patients of child-producing potential must agree to comply with one of
the following until at least 120 days after the last dose of derazantinib:
1. Abstinence from heterosexual activity**
2. Using (or having their partner use) an acceptable method of contraception during
heterosexual activity. Acceptable methods of contraception are***:
- any ONE of:
- an intrauterine device (IUD)
- vasectomy of a female patient's male partner
- a contraceptive rod implanted into the skin.
- any TWO in combination of:
- diaphragm with spermicide (cannot be used in conjunction with cervical
cap/spermicide)
- cervical cap with spermicide (nulliparous women only)
- contraceptive sponge (nulliparous women only)
- male condom or female condom (cannot be used together)
- hormonal contraceptive (oral contraceptive pill [estrogen/progestin
pill or progestin-only pill], contraceptive skin patch, vaginal
contraceptive ring, or subcutaneous contraceptive injection)
*Postmenopausal is defined as at least 12 months with no menses without
an alternative medical cause; in women < 45 years of age a high
follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) level in the postmenopausal range
may be used to confirm a post -menopausal state in women not using
hormonal contraception or hormonal replacement therapy. In the absence
of 12 months of amenorrhea, a single FSH measurement is not sufficient.
**Abstinence (relative to heterosexual activity) can be used as the
sole method of contraception if it is consistently employed as the
subject's preferred and usual lifestyle and if considered acceptable by
local regulatory agencies and ERCs/IRBs. Periodic abstinence (e.g.,
calendar, ovulation, sympto-thermal, post-ovulation methods, etc.) and
withdrawal are not acceptable methods of contraception.
- If a contraceptive method listed above is restricted by local
regulations/guidelines, then it does not qualify as an acceptable
method of contraception for subjects participating at sites in
this country/region.
Exclusion Criteria:
1. Systemic anti-cancer therapy, such as chemotherapy, immunotherapy, hormonal, targeted
therapy, or investigational agents within four weeks of the first dose of
derazantinib, or within five half-lives of any investigational or licensed medicinal
product, whichever is the longer period.
2. Major surgery, locoregional therapy, or radiation therapy within four weeks of the
first dose of derazantinib
3. Previous treatment with any FGFR inhibitor (e.g., ponatinib, dovitinib, nintedanib,
AZD4547, NVP-BGJ398, LY2784455, BAY1163877)
