PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:~I. To estimate the objective radiographic response rate to single agent rogaratinib (BAY 1163877) in two cohorts of patients with sarcoma: Cohort A defined as patients with a sarcoma which harbors an alteration in fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR) 1, 2, 3 or 4 identified by next-generation sequencing profiling, and Cohort B defined as patients with advanced succinate dehydrogenase (SDH)-deficient gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST).~SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:~I. To estimate progression-free survival (PFS) in patients in Cohort A and Cohort B treated with rogaratinib (BAY 1163877).~II. Further assessment for safety and tolerability.~EXPLORATORY OBJECTIVES:~I. To evaluate serial measurements of FGFR and FGFR ligand in serial tumor biopsies as potential pharmacodynamic markers of FGFR pathway inhibition by ribonucleic acid sequencing (RNA-seq) (pre-treatment biopsy and post-progression biopsy [if available]).~II. Whole exome sequencing (WES) of the pre-treatment biopsy and post-progression biopsy (if available) to help identify mechanisms of resistance.~III. To bank tumor material, germline deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA), and peripheral blood for potential future research for participating subjects who provide additional consent.~IV. To explore rogaratinib exposure with pharmacodynamics effects (i.e., clinical response, toxicity, and markers of FGFR pathway inhibition).~OUTLINE:~Patients receive rogaratinib orally (PO) twice daily (BID) on days 1-28 of each cycle. Treatment repeats every 28 days for up to 24 cycles in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients undergo biopsy at baseline and progression and computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and positron emission tomography (PET)-CT every 8 weeks. Patients may also undergo blood sample collection on study.~After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up at 30 days.
This phase II trial studies the effect of rogaratinib in treating patients with sarcoma with a change in a group of proteins called fibroblast growth factor receptors (FGFRs) or SDH-deficient gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST). Rogaratinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.
