BackgroundErdafitinib (Erda), a pan-FGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor, recently received accelerated approval by US FDA for treatment of post-platinum advanced UC pts with certain FGFR3 or 2 alterations. Erda induces dose dependent hyperphosphatemia via inhibition of PO4 excretion. MethodsPh1 data and PK/PD modeling identified a serum PO4 level of≥5.5mg/dL as a PD target with acceptable tolerability. In a ph2 study (NCT02365597) pts started Erda at 8mg/day, serum PO4 was assessed every cycle, and Cycle 1Day 14 (C1D14). Up-titration on C1D15 to 9mg/day occurred if serum PO4 was < 5.5mg/dL and pts had no significant investigator assessed toxicity. Objective response rate (ORR) and disease control rate (DCR) were assessed by logistic regression analysis; progression free survival (PFS), and overall survival (OS) were calculated by Cox regression methods. Results99 patients started 8mg Erda and 41% were up-titrated to 9mg based on C1D14 PO4 levels. The ORR and DCR were higher (42.7% and 85.3%) when maximum PO4 levels were >5.5mg/dL as compared to below (34.8% and 65.2%, respectively). Median OS and PFS were prolonged with levels >5.5mg/dL as compared to below with hazard ratio of 0.35 (median not reached vs 6.7 months) and 0.68 (5.6 vs 3.8 months), respectively. Among patients that could not be up-titrated due to concurrent toxicities, ORR was 27.3% (n=22; 95% CI- 8.7%, 45.9%) as compared to 48.8% (n=41; 95% CI-33.5%, 64.1%) for patients who were up-titrated. Logistic regression analysis (ORR, DCR), and Cox regression (PFS, OS) showed that maximum phosphate levels positively correlated with ORR, DCR, PFS, and OS (Table).Table932P ORR, DCR, PFS, OS and maximum on-treatment serum PO4*TableORRDCRPFSOSORb, (95% CI), p-valuecORb, (95% CI), p-valuecHR, (95% CI), p-valueeHR, (95% CI), p-valueePrognostic variableaMaximum PO4: per 1mg/dL increase1.25, (0.86, 1.81), 0.2472.31, (1.31, 4.08), 0.0040.78, (0.63, 0.96), 0.0210.58, (0.43, 0.80), 0.001Simulated outcomes via PK/PD modeling of up-titrating from 8mg to 9mg QDf1.10 (0.93, 1.29), -1.43 (1.12, 1.83), -0.90 (0.82, 0.98), -0.79 (0.70, 0.91), -*The median time to maximum = 1.3m.

ConclusionsHyperphosphatemia in Erda treated pts is associated with improved outcomes, supporting optimization of Erda dosing via uptitration based on serum PO4.
