LGG-09. CLINICAL ACTIVITY OF PAN-RAF INHIBITOR TOVORAFENIB IN THE REGISTRATIONAL PEDIATRIC LOW-GRADE GLIOMA ARM OF THE PHASE 2 FIREFLY-1 (PNOC026) STUDY
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract Genomic alterations of BRAF are common oncogenic drivers in pediatric low-grade glioma (pLGG). Tovorafenib is an investigational, oral, selective, brain-penetrant, small molecule, type II panRAF inhibitor. FIREFLY-1 (NCT04775485) is a multicenter phase 2 study evaluating the efficacy and safety of tovorafenib monotherapy in patients with BRAF-altered cancers. Registrational arm 1 includes patients 6 months-25 years of age with recurrent or progressive LGG previously treated with ≥1 prior line of systemic therapy. Tovorafenib 420 mg/m2 (≤600 mg) is administered weekly, in 28-day cycles, (tablet or liquid suspension formulation) until progression. The primary endpoint of arm 1 is ORR, as defined by RANO criteria and determined by blinded independent review. As of September 28, 2022, arm 1 had enrolled 77 patients and is fully accrued. All patients had ≥6 months of follow-up. Median age at enrollment was 8 years (range 2-21). Patients had received a median of 3 prior lines of systemic therapy (range: 1-9); 60% had received prior MAPK pathway-targeted agents. The most common tumor site was optic pathway (51%). Sixty-four patients harbored a tumor BRAF fusion/rearrangement (83%) and 13 (17%) a V600E mutation. Median duration of tovorafenib treatment is 8.4 months (range 0.7-16.8); 59 patients (77%) remained on treatment at data cutoff. ORR in 69 RANO-evaluable patients was 64%, [3 CR, 41 PR (10 unconfirmed) and 19 SD] with a clinical benefit rate of 91%. The most common treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) of any grade were hair color changes (75%), increased creatine phosphokinase (64%), anemia (46%), fatigue (42%) and maculopapular rash (42%). Two patients (3%) discontinued tovorafenib due to TRAEs. Updates from a longer follow-up on the 77 patients in arm 1 will be presented. Tovorafenib was generally well tolerated and showed encouraging evidence of antitumor activity in children and young adults with refractory BRAF-altered LGG.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
