Brief Summary:

The goal of this clinical trial is to study the safety and tolerability in all advanced solid tumors, including advanced urothelial carcinoma.

The main question[s] it aims to answer are:

  • Is FX-909 safe and tolerable
  • What is the right dose level for patients

Participants will be asked to take FX-909 daily , in tablet form and record any outcomes from taking the drug. Participants will also be asked to return for multiple site visits for various blood tests and to collect blood and tumor samples as well as have regular CT/MRI scans


Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Advanced Solid Tumors Cancer Advanced Urothelial Carcinoma Oral Drug Administration Open Label Drug: FX-909 Phase 1

Detailed Description:
This is an open-label Phase 1 study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and preliminary clinical activity of FX-909 given orally (PO) in patients with advanced solid malignancies. Initially, FX-909 will be given in a dose-escalation phase (Part A) to determine the preliminary recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D). Part B will be a monotherapy expansion phase to further evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and clinical activity of FX-909 in patients with locally advanced (unresectable) and metastatic urothelial carcinoma. Throughout the study patients will be treated in 28-day cycles.

  4. Part A (Dose Escalation): Histologically or cytologically diagnosed, locally advanced (unresectable) or metastatic solid malignancies that have progressed after all available standard therapy for the specific tumor type, or for which no standard therapy exists. Patients for whom standard therapies are intolerable or considered inappropriate by the Investigator are eligible.

    Part B (Expansion): Histologically or cytologically diagnosed, locally advanced (unresectable) or metastatic urothelial carcinoma with defined genetic alterations. Patients in Part B must have progressed after all available standard therapy (eg, anti- programmed cell death (ligand) 1 [PD(L)1], antibody-drug conjugate[s], and platinum-based doublet chemotherapy), been unable to tolerate standard therapy, or be considered inappropriate for standard therapy by the Investigator.

    Part B (Expansion): Patients must have measurable disease per RECIST version 1.1 with ≥ 1 site of measurable disease that has not been previously irradiated or has progressed after radiation therapy.

  6. An archival, paraffin-embedded, formalin-fixed, tumor sample (see Laboratory Manual for details) that is no more than 30 months old at the time of screening. If an archival tumor sample is not available or is older than 30 months, then the patient must consent to provide a fresh biopsy during screening.
  7. Screening laboratory values meet the criteria outlined in the protocol. Hematologic criteria may be met with transfusion of blood products or administration of G-CSF, provided they are not given within 7 days of C1D1.

Patietns are permitted with either universal prophylaxis or a pre-emptive treatment approach consistent with regional or national guidelines for patients who receive anticancer therapies.
  13. Active hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. Those who have completed curative therapy for HCV and have no detectable viral load are permitted.
  14. Prior diagnosis of chronic or recurrent (> 1 episode) pancreatitis at any time or a diagnosis of acute pancreatitis within the 6 months prior to screening
