Ages Eligible for Study: | 18 Years to 99 Years (Adult, Older Adult) |
Sexes Eligible for Study: | All |
Accepts Healthy Volunteers: | No |
Inclusion Criteria:
-
Histological, cytological, or molecular confirmation of recurrent GBM or other adult-type, diffuse glioma or circumscribed astrocytic tumors.
- For Cohorts A and C: Prior histopathologically proven WHO grade 4, IDH-wild-type GBM OR molecular diagnosis of IDH-wild-type, diffuse astrocytic glioma with molecular features of WHO grade 4 GBM (astrocytic glioma requires presence of either amplification of EGFR, whole chromosome 7 gain and whole chromosome 10 loss, or TERT-promoter mutation; Louis et al 2021) that has recurred or progressed on or after treatment with at least 1 line of standard of care therapy (eg, temozolomide and radiotherapy or radiotherapy).
- For Cohorts B and C: Prior histopathologically proven, per WHO criteria, adult-type diffuse gliomas other than GBM, including IDH-mutant astrocytoma and IDH-mutant and 1p/19q codeleted oligodendroglioma, and circumscribed astrocytic tumors, including pilocytic astrocytomas, that are recurrent or progressed on or after at least 1 line of standard of care therapy (eg, radiotherapy and/or treatment with an alkylating chemotherapy such as TMZ, CCNU, or BCNU-containing chemotherapy). For Cohort C, all gliomas and glioneuronal and neuronal tumors with a known or likely FGFR 1-3 activating mutation are also eligible.
- Radiographically measurable disease. Tumor lesions located in a previously irradiated area, or in an area subjected to other loco-regional therapy, are considered measurable if progression has been clearly demonstrated in the lesion.
- Karnofsky performance status ≥ 60.
- Life expectancy ≥ 12 weeks.
-
Documentation of an FGFR1-3 gene mutation or fusion/rearrangement from tissue (cfDNA from a qualified laboratory such as FMI or Guardant Health may be acceptable after review by medical monitor).
- Cohort A: Participants with prior, histopathologically proven, WHO grade 4,IDH-wild-type GBM OR molecular diagnosis of IDH-wild-type, diffuse astrocytic glioma with molecular features of WHO grade 4 GBM (astrocytic glioma requires presence of either amplification of EGFR, whole chromosome 7 gain and whole chromosome 10 loss, or TERT-promoter mutation; Louis et al 2021) that has recurred, harboring FGFR1-3 fusions or rearrangements (FGFR1-3 in-frame fusions, any FGFR2 rearrangement, or FGFR1/3 rearrangement with known partner).

All gliomas and glioneuronal and neuronal tumors with a known or likely FGFR 1-3 activating mutation are also eligible.
- MRI-documented objective progression after prior therapy and must have no therapy available that is likely to provide clinical benefit. An interval of at least 12 weeks after prior radiotherapy is required unless there is either histopathological confirmation of recurrent tumor or new enhancement on MRI outside the radiotherapy field.

- Participants may have had treatment for an unlimited number of prior relapses but must not have had prior bevacizumab or other VEGF/VEGFR inhibitors (exception: prior bevacizumab is allowed if it was administered for the treatment of radiation necrosis rather than progressive tumor and was stopped at least 12 weeks prior to MRI showing tumor progression).
- Concurrent anticancer therapy (eg, chemotherapy, immunotherapy, biologic therapy, hormonal therapy, investigational therapy, or tumor embolization).
- Candidate for potentially curative surgery.
- Dexamethasone (or equivalent) > 4 mg daily at the time of study registration (higher doseof steroid for symptom control is allowed during the study).

- Diffuse leptomeningeal disease.
- Radiation therapy administered within 12 weeks before enrollment/first dose of study drug. An interval of at least 12 weeks after prior radiotherapy is required unless there is either histopathological confirmation of recurrent tumor or new enhancement on MRI outside the radiotherapy field.
- Known additional malignancy that is progressing or requires active systemic treatment. Exceptions include basal cell carcinoma of the skin, squamous cell carcinoma of the skin,or in situ cervical cancer that has undergone potentially curative therapy.
- Participants with defined laboratory values at screening.
