Abstract WSD0922-Fu is an oral, CNS-penetrant, small molecule EGFR inhibitor which potently inhibits EGFR aberrations specific to non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and glioblastoma (GBM). MC1914 (NCT04197934) is a first-in-human phase 1 trial in patients with EGFR aberrant recurrent GBM and NSCLC. After determining the maximum tolerated dose, adults with recurrent GBM were treated in two expansion cohorts: (a) non-surgical cohort (6/12 patients thus far): EGFRvIII mutation, first recurrence; food-effect study included (b) surgical cohort (6/6 patients), any EGFR mutation, any recurrence; window-of-opportunity study (WOO) included. Among these 12 patients, median age = 60 years; 50% female; 58% ECOG 0). All patients received prior radiation and temozolomide. After the WOO or food-effect study, patients were dosed at 120 mg BID (5 days on, 2 days off), and escalated to 160 mg BID (5 days on, 2 days off) based on tolerability. Common adverse events (>40%) are comparable to other EGFR inhibitors (acneiform rash, diarrhea, fatigue, xerosis, pruritis). Treatment-related grade 3+ adverse events were limited to lymphopenia (n = 1). WSD0922-Fu exposure in the fed state exceeded the fasted state (median plasma Cmax and AUC0-24h are 1.6x and 1.3x, respectively) with a delayed Tmax (6.0 vs 1.8 hours). For the WOO, time between last dose administered to tumor collection ranged between 4 - 13.5 hours. Median tumor WSD0922-Fu concentration was 0.76 µg/g; estimated median unbound tumor concentration was 24.9 ng/g and within expectations for pharmacodynamic effect. Median brain/plasma ratio = 0.59; median unbound brain/unbound plasma = 0.88. Enrollment to the non-surgical cohort is ongoing, so formal efficacy data remain immature. However, examples of clinical efficacy will be shown along with data on recurrence patterns. Phase 2 clinical trial development is in progress.

Abstract WSD0922-Fu is an oral, CNS-penetrant, small molecule EGFR inhibitor which potently inhibits EGFR aberrations specific to non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and high-grade astrocytoma (HGA). MC1914 (NCT04197934) is a first-in-human phase 1 trial in patients with EGFR aberrant recurrent HGA and NSCLC. Adult patients with either recurrent EGFR mutant NSCLC with CNS metastases or recurrent EGFR aberrant HGA were enrolled and treated across six cohorts (40 mg once daily to 320 mg twice daily, 28-day cycles) to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD). 25 patients (17 HGA, 8 NSCLC) were enrolled (median age = 57 years; 24% female; 36% ECOG 0). All patients with HGA received prior radiation and temozolomide. All patients with NSCLC had previous disease progression on EGFR inhibitor therapy (prior osimertinib 88%). The median duration of WSD0922-Fu exposure among all patients was 55 days (range 3 to >279 days) [NSCLC median = 131 days; HGA median = 51 days]. Common treatment-related adverse events are comparable to other EGFR inhibitors (fatigue, acneiform rash, diarrhea, nausea, pruritis). At Cycle 1 Day 15 for patients treated at MTD (160 mg twice daily), the mean terminal elimination half-life (%CV) in the plasma was 31.6 h (102%) (median 14.5 h). The mean Cmax, Tmax, oral clearance at steady state, and AUC (0-12 h) (%CV) were 4513 ng/mL (50%), 2.0 hr (69%), 6.9 L/hr/m2 (42%), and 28084 h*ng/mL (52%), respectively. Among patients with NSCLC treated at MTD or higher dose levels and with available response data, 100% (5/5) of patients demonstrated clinical benefit (SD + PR) while 60% of patients had partial responses. Intracranial and extracranial efficacy was concordant. Furthermore, prolonged stable disease (9 cycles) was observed in a patient with EGFRvIII mutant GBM. Expansion cohorts are in progress to optimize WSD0922-Fu dose and schedule for future phase 2 development.

Abstract WSD0922-Fu is an oral, central nervous system (CNS)-penetrant, small molecule, ATP non-competitive, reversible EGFR inhibitor which potently inhibits EGFR aberrations specific to non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and high-grade astrocytoma (HGA). MC1914 (NCT04197934, sponsored by Wayshine Biopharma and FDA OOPD) is a first-in-human phase 1 dose-escalation trial investigating the safety and tolerability of WSD0922-Fu in patients with EGFR aberrant recurrent HGA and NSCLC. Adult patients with either recurrent EGFR mutant NSCLC with CNS metastases or recurrent EGFR mutant and/or EGFR amplified HGA were initially treated with oral WSD0922-FU, with doses escalated in cohorts based on a standard 3 + 3 design to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD). After establishing the MTD, this trial has now activated three dose expansion cohorts. Two of these cohorts evaluate different dose/schedule strategies in independent populations. The NSCLC cohort includes patients with EGFR mutant NSCLC and CNS metastases, and examines the safety, tolerability, plasma pharmacokinetics and preliminary efficacy of continuous WSD0922-Fu dosing (twice daily, seven days per week). The HGA cohort includes patients with EGFRvIII mutant HGA at first recurrence after prior radiation/temozolomide and examines the impact of higher doses of WSD0922-Fu administered intermittently (twice daily, five days per week). The HGA cohort also includes a food-effect study which evaluates the effect of the fed and fasted states on plasma PK. The third cohort (Brain tumor penetration cohort) includes patients with HGA (any EGFR mutation and/or EGFR amplification) who need a surgical resection for recurrent disease. Patients enrolled will be treated pre-operatively with WSD0922-Fu for five days, and tumor PK/PD will be examined in samples obtained from image-registered brain tumor biopsies. WSD0922-Fu therapy will be resumed after post-operative recovery. Patient enrollment to all three dose expansion cohorts is ongoing.

3109 Background: WSD0922-Fu is an oral, central nervous system (CNS)-penetrant, small molecule, ATP non-competitive, reversible EGFR inhibitor which potently inhibits EGFR aberrations specific to non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and high-grade astrocytoma (HGA). We report initial results of a first-in-human phase 1 dose-escalation trial (NCT04197934) in patients with EGFR aberrant recurrent HGA and NSCLC. Methods: Adult patients with either recurrent EGFR mutant NSCLC with CNS metastases or recurrent EGFR mutant and/or EGFR amplified HGA were enrolled. WSD0922-Fu was orally administered, and dose escalated in cohorts based on a standard 3+3 design to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD). Toxicities were graded per CTCAE v5.0 and preliminary efficacy was based on modified RANO criteria or RECIST 1.1 as appropriate. Results: 25 patients (17 HGA, 8 NSCLC) were enrolled and treated in six cohorts (40 mg once daily to 320 mg twice daily, 28-day cycles). The median age was 57 years (range 39-75 years). 24% were female and 36% were ECOG 0. For patients with HGA, all patients were previously treated with radiation and temozolomide; the median number of prior lines of systemic therapy was 1 (range 1-4). For patients with NSCLC, all patients were previously treated with an EGFR inhibitor (prior osimertinib 88%); the median number of prior lines of systemic therapy was 1.5 (range 1-6). The median duration of exposure to WSD0922-Fu among all patients was 54 days (range 2-258 days). The most common (≥25%) treatment-related adverse events included fatigue (68%), acneiform rash (68%), diarrhea (52%), nausea (48%) and pruritis (28%). The frequency of severe AEs was dose dependent. The most common Grade 3+ AEs (≥10%) included lymphopenia (16%), acneiform rash (12%), headache (12%) and diarrhea (12%). The MTD was defined as 160 mg twice daily. At Cycle 1 Day 15 for patients treated at this dose level, the mean terminal elimination half-life (%CV) in the plasma was 31.6 h (102%) (median 14.5 h; range 6.2-78.7 h). The mean Cmax, Tmax, oral clearance at steady state, and AUC (0-12 h) (%CV) were 4513 ng/mL (50%), 2.0 hr (69%), 6.9 L/hr/m2 (42%), and 28084 h*ng/mL (52%), respectively. Oral clearance at steady state was inversely related with dose, suggesting either inhibition or saturation of clearance processes. Among patients treated at MTD or higher dose levels and with available response data, 100% (5/5) of patients with NSCLC demonstrated clinical benefit (SD + PR) while 60% of patients had partial responses (intracranial and extracranial). Furthermore, prolonged stable disease (9 cycles) was observed in a patient with EGFRvIII mutant GBM. Conclusions: The MTD for WSD0922-Fu monotherapy is 160 mg BID. Preliminary efficacy was observed in patients with osimertinib-resistant NSCLC and EGFRvIII mutant HGA. Enrollment to expansion cohorts is ongoing. Clinical trial information: NCT04197934 .
