Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Progression Free Survival
6 months

To assess the anti-tumor activity of BGJ398 for patients with GBM and/or other glioma subtypes that harbor FGFR1-TACC1, FGFR3-TACC3 fusion and/or activating mutation in FGFR1, 2 or 3 based on PFS6 (PFS rate at 6 months as defined by RANO criteria as assessed by the investigator)

Incidence rate of dose limiting toxicities (DLTs) of the combination of BGJ398 with BYL719
Approximately 8 months

The dose escalation part of the study will be guided by a well-established statistical method/model to estimate the maximum tolerated dose(s) and/or the recommended dose for expansion (RDE). Safety(incidence and nature of DLTs), pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic data will guide dose escalation decisioins.

Incidence rate and category of dose limiting toxicities (DLTs)
First cycle of 28 days

Maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and/or Recommended dose (RD) of single agent oral BGJ398

Incidence rate and category of dose-limiting toxicities will be tabulated for patients included in the dose escalation portion of the study, to establish the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) and Recommended Phase 2 Dose (RPTD)
23 months

Incidence rate and category of dose-limiting toxicities will be tabulated for patients included in the dose escalation portion of the study, to establish the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) and Recommended Phase 2 Dose (RPTD). This will be calculated using an established statistical model, based on incidence of adverse events and serious adverse events, physical examinations, vital signs, electrocardiograms, and laboratory parameters

Frequently asked questions about BGJ398

What is BGJ398 used for?

BGJ398 is an investigational small molecule being studied for the treatment of advanced solid tumors, including tumors with alterations of FGFR1, 2 and/or 3, and recurrent glioblastoma or other glioma subtypes. It is being developed by Novartis AG (NVS) and is currently in clinical development.

What does BGJ398 target?

BGJ398 targets fibroblast growth factor receptors (FGFR), specifically alterations in FGFR1, FGFR2, and FGFR3. It is being studied in patients with advanced solid tumors that have these genetic alterations, as well as in recurrent glioblastoma.

Who makes BGJ398?

BGJ398 is being developed by Novartis AG, a multinational pharmaceutical company traded on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol NVS. The drug is an investigational small molecule in the oncology therapeutic area.

What phase is BGJ398 in?

BGJ398 has completed Phase 1 and Phase 2 clinical trials. The completed trials include a Phase 1 dose escalation study, a Phase 1 study in Asian patients, a Phase 1b combination trial, and a Phase 2 study in recurrent glioblastoma. It remains an investigational drug.

What clinical trials is BGJ398 in?

BGJ398 has been studied in four completed clinical trials: NCT01004224, a Phase 1 dose escalation study in advanced solid tumors; NCT01697605, a Phase 1 study in Asian patients; NCT01928459, a Phase 1b trial combining BGJ398 with BYL719; and NCT01975701, a Phase 2 study in recurrent glioblastoma.

Is BGJ398 the same as infigratinib?

BGJ398 is also known by the generic name infigratinib. It is an investigational small molecule FGFR inhibitor being developed by Novartis for the treatment of advanced solid tumors with FGFR alterations and recurrent glioblastoma.
