About this study
Official title: Phase 2 Study of Avapritinib in Patients With CKIT or PDGFRA Mutation-Positive Malignant Solid Tumors
This phase II trial studies the effect of avapritinib in treating malignant solid tumors that have a genetic change (mutation) in CKIT or PDGFRA and have spread to nearby tissue or lymph nodes (locally advanced) or other places in the body (metastatic). Avapritinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Avapritinib may help to control the growth of malignant solid tumors.
Read the detailed description
PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:
- To determine the objective response rate (ORR) of avapritinib in patients with pathogenic CKIT or PDGFRA activating mutation-positive malignant solid tumors, as assessed by the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) v1.1 or RANO criteria (as appropriate).
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
- To evaluate the duration of response (DoR) to avapritinib in patients with pathogenic CKIT or PDGFRA activating mutation-positive malignant solid tumors.
II. To evaluate the disease control rate (DCR) of avapritinib in patients with pathogenic CKIT or PDGFRA activating mutation-positive malignant solid tumors.
III. To determine the safety and tolerability of avapritinib in patients with pathogenic CKIT or PDGFRA activating mutation-positive malignant solid tumors, as assessed by the National Cancer institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI CTCAE) v5.0.
EXPLORATORY OBJECTIVES:
- To evaluate the overall survival (OS) of patients with pathogenic CKIT or PDGFRA activating mutation-positive malignant solid tumors receiving avapritinib.
II. To evaluate the ORR and DoR of avapritinib in patients with measurable brain or central nervous system (CNS) metastases at baseline.
III. To evaluate the progression-free survival (PFS) of patients with pathogenic CKIT or PDGFRA activating mutation-positive malignant solid tumors receiving avapritinib.
IV. To evaluate the correlation between genomic mutations and clinical outcome. V. To evaluate time on treatment (including patients treated beyond progression).
VI. To evaluate baseline genomics and circulating cell-free deoxyribonucleic acid (cfDNA) and functional analyses of variants.
OUTLINE:
Patients receive avapritinib orally (PO) once daily (QD) on days 1-28. Cycles repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up at 30 days and then every 8 weeks.

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Overall response rate (ORR)
ORR defined as confirmed complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) from the time of study treatment initiation until disease progression as centrally assessed using the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) v1.1 or Response Assessment in Neuro-Oncology Criteria (RANO) criteria, as appropriate. Confirmed CR or PR will be defined as a repeat assessment performed 4 weeks (+/-3 days) after the criteria for response is first met. Will estimate ORR along with 90% confidence interval according to Clopper-Pearson method for each cohort and for specific tumor type.
Measured: or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 50 months
Secondary outcomes (3)
Duration of response (DoR)
Determined for patients with best overall response of confirmed CR or PR (centrally assessed); DoR is defined as the number of months from the start of CR or PR (whichever response is recorded first) and subsequently confirmed to the first date of documented PD or death. Descriptive statistics will be used.
Measured: Up to study completion (estimated 4 years)
Disease control rate (DCR)
DCR defined as BOR of confirmed CR or PR (either of any duration) or stable disease SD >= 16 weeks following study treatment initiation. Descriptive statistics will be used.
Measured: >= 16 weeks following study treatment initiation
Incidence of adverse events
Will be measured by Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 5.0. Descriptive statistics will be used.
Measured: Up to study completion (estimated 4 years)

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 2 study testing Avapritinib in people with Anatomic Stage IV Breast Cancer AJCC v8 and Clinical Stage IV Gastroesophageal Junction Adenocarcinoma AJCC v8, run by M.D. Anderson Cancer Center at 1 site in United States.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 23 inclusion and 21 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 11 Jun 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
What does this phase mean?
Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
Are results available for this study?
This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
Contact Jordi R Rodon, MD, PHD ((713) 792-5603, jrodon@mdanderson.org), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Overall response rate (ORR) (time frame: or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 50 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 11 Jun 2026.
