About

This is a nonrandomized, uncontrolled, open-label, multicenter Phase 2 study to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of futibatinib in combination with PD-1 antibody-based SoC therapy in adult patients with solid tumors.

Full description

Patients with locally advanced, unresectable or metastatic esophageal cancer (EC) or pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) will receive futibatinib in combination with pembrolizumab plus standard of care (SOC) chemotherapy. Patients with EC will receive Investigator choice of chemotherapy (FP or mFOLFOX6), patients with PDAC will receive mFOLFIRINOX. Subjects will receive futibatinib in combination with pembrolizumab plus standard of care (SOC) chemotherapy during induction phase of the study and will continue on futibatinib in combination with pembrolizumab in consolidation phase.

Enrollment: 66 estimated patients
