Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Progression free survival (PFS)
At 6 months

Point estimates and 95% binomial confidence intervals will be generated for the six month PFS rate within each cohort of each treatment arm. Kaplan-Meier curves will be generated for PFS for each cohort within each treatment arm.

Response rate defined as a confirmed complete response (CR) or partial response (PR)
Up to 2 years

Point estimates will be generated for response rates within each treatment arm with corresponding 95% binomial confidence intervals.

Secondary Endpoints

Overall survival (OS)
Up to 2 years
Incidence of adverse events according to National Cancer Institute CTCAE version 4.0
Up to 4 weeks after completion of study treatment

Frequently asked questions about FAK Inhibitor GSK2256098

What is FAK Inhibitor GSK2256098 used for?

FAK Inhibitor GSK2256098 is an investigational small molecule being studied for the treatment of intracranial meningioma, including recurrent meningioma and tumors with NF2 gene mutations. It is currently in Phase 2 clinical development and has not been approved by the FDA.

What does FAK Inhibitor GSK2256098 target?

FAK Inhibitor GSK2256098 targets focal adhesion kinase (FAK), an enzyme involved in cell signaling and tumor growth. By inhibiting FAK, the drug aims to disrupt pathways that support cancer cell survival and proliferation in meningiomas.

Who makes FAK Inhibitor GSK2256098?

FAK Inhibitor GSK2256098 is being developed by GSK plc, a global biopharmaceutical company listed on the stock exchange under the ticker symbol GSK.

What phase is FAK Inhibitor GSK2256098 in?

FAK Inhibitor GSK2256098 is in Phase 2 clinical development. It is an investigational drug, meaning it has not yet been approved by regulatory authorities and is still being evaluated for safety and efficacy in clinical trials.

What clinical trials is FAK Inhibitor GSK2256098 in?

FAK Inhibitor GSK2256098 is being studied in a Phase 2 clinical trial with the identifier NCT02523014. This trial is recruiting participants with progressive meningiomas and is being conducted in the United States, with an estimated enrollment of 124 patients.

Is FAK Inhibitor GSK2256098 the same as Vismodegib, Capivasertib, or Abemaciclib?

No, FAK Inhibitor GSK2256098 is a distinct drug from Vismodegib, Capivasertib, and Abemaciclib. However, it is being studied in combination with these other agents in a clinical trial for progressive meningiomas, as part of a multi-drug treatment approach.
