Abstract

Futibatinib, an inhibitor of fibroblast growth factor receptor 1-4, is approved for the treatment of patients with advanced cholangiocarcinoma with FGFR2 fusions/rearrangements. In this phase I drug-drug interaction study, the effects of futibatinib on P-glycoprotein (P-gp) and breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP) substrates, and of P-gp inhibition on futibatinib pharmacokinetics (PK) were investigated in healthy adults aged 18-55 years. In part 1, 20 participants received digoxin (P-gp substrate) and rosuvastatin (BCRP substrate). Following a ≥10-day washout, futibatinib was administered for 7 days, with digoxin and rosuvastatin coadministered on the third day. In part 2, 24 participants received futibatinib. Following a ≥3-day washout, quinidine (P-gp inhibitor) was administered for 4 days, with futibatinib coadministered on day 4. Blood samples were collected predose and for 24 (futibatinib), 72 (rosuvastatin), and 120 h (digoxin) postdose. Urine samples (digoxin) were collected predose and for 120 h postdose. PK parameters were compared between treatments using analysis of variance. Coadministration with futibatinib had no effect on the PK of digoxin and rosuvastatin, and coadministration with quinidine had minimal effects on the PK of futibatinib. Differences in Cmax and AUC with and without futibatinib and quinidine, respectively, were <20%. The most common treatment-emergent adverse events were diarrhea (80%) and increased blood phosphorous (75%) in part 1 and…

How strong is the evidence?

Evidence Hub reads this as a clinical trial, done in people. Its evidence level is 3 of 5 (Moderate · trial / cohort / secondary analysis). Trials without a large randomized design, cohorts and secondary analyses give moderate evidence.
