4067Background: FGFR2b-overexpressing gastric cancer is characterized by poor prognosis. FPA144, a humanized monoclonal IgG1 antibody that specifically binds to and blocks FGFR2b, has been engineered for enhanced antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC). FPA144-001 is a two-part Phase 1 study of FPA144 monotherapy in patients with advanced solid tumors, including gastric and gastroesophageal cancers (GEJ cancers). Methods: Part 1A was a 3+3 design to assess safety and PK and to establish a recommended dose (RD) of FPA144. Patients with gastric cancer were enrolled in Part 1B to assess PK in gastric cancer. Part 2 includes 4 cohorts of gastric cancer patients with either high, moderate, low or no FGFR2b overexpression based on a centralized immunohistochemistry (IHC) assay. Here, we describe results of gastric cancer patients that highly overexpress FGFR2b (FGFR2b+ High) enrolled in Parts 1 and 2 of the study. Results: As of October 28, 2016, 18 FGFR2b+ High (IHC 3+ ≥10% tumor membrane staining...
