Abstract
Abstract Background: The epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) is a potent oncogene commonly altered in many cancers, including glioblastoma (GBM) and non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). EGFR tyrosine kinase activity driven by common EGFR mutations can be inhibited by small molecules, however, resistance to available agents may be driven by mutations in the EGFR active kinase site or other regions. BDTX-1535 is an orally available, highly potent, selective, irreversible inhibitor of EGFR mutations, including extracellular variants and amplifications commonly expressed in GBM and inhibits the uncommon EGFR mutations found in NSCLC, including the C797S mutation acquired following 3rd generation EGFR inhibitor therapy. Preclinical data demonstrated the ability of BDTX-1535 to cross the blood-brain barrier and produce sustained inhibition of EGFR signaling. Preclinical studies suggest that BDTX-1535 has potential to be clinically active in suppressing tumor growth in patients with GBM and NSCLC with or without CNS metastases, including a potential survival benefit. Methods: BDTX-1535-101 (NCT05256290) is Phase 1, open-label, multicenter study to assess the safety, tolerability, PK, CNS penetrance, and preliminary antitumor activity of BDTX-1535 in recurrent GBM (rGBM) or locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC with or without CNS disease. The Monotherapy Dose Escalation portion will evaluate BDTX-1535 in patients with either rGBM expressing EGFR alterations or locally advanced/metastatic NSCLC harboring sensitizing EGFR mutations with or without CNS disease. Patients with rGBM must have previously received available standard therapy of surgical resection followed by chemoradiotherapy and/or temozolomide (TMZ). Eligible NSCLC patients must have EGFR mutated NSCLC that has progressed following standard of care EGFR inhibitor therapy. Once a provisional recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) has been established, BDTX-1535 monotherapy will be explored in the following Dose Expansion cohorts to further evaluate safety, PK, and preliminary assessment of efficacy: 1) rGBM with confirmed EGFR alterations, 2) NSCLC with uncommon EGFR mutations following EGFR inhibitor therapy; 3) NSCLC with acquired EGFR resistance mutation following a 3rd generation EGFR inhibitor in 1L setting. NSCLC patients may enroll with or without CNS metastases and must not be known to express excluded resistance mutations such as EGFR T790M or MET. BDTX-1535 will also be studied in combination with TMZ to assess safety, tolerability, and a recommended combination dose for the treatment of patients with rGBM harboring EGFR mutations or variants. Enrollment was initiated in 2022 and dose escalation is ongoing. Dose Expansion cohorts are expected to open in 2023.
