A plain-language read of the study's public EU CTIS listing. The study team confirms the details.
Who can take part
You may be able to join if
- ● Be 18 years of age or above, on day of signing informed consent
- ● Histologically confirmed DDLPS*. Written pathology report indicating the diagnosis of DDLPS with positive MDM2 immunohistochemistry or MDM2 amplification as demonstrated by fluorescence in situ hybridization, polymerase chain reaction (PCR) or sequencing-based methods must be available.
- ● Have the presence of at least 1 measurable lesion by CT per RECIST v1.1 that is considered non amenable to surgery or other curative treatments or procedures. Tumor lesions located in a previously irradiated area or in an area subjected to other loco-regional therapy are considered measurable if progression has been demonstrated in the lesion.
- ● Be willing to provide tissue by core or excisional biopsy of a tumor lesion at the time points specified in the Trial Flow Chart. Archival tumor tissue can be used instead of pre-treatment biopsy. Biopsy will only be performed if the risk of complication is considered acceptable for the patient.
- ● Have a performance status of 0-2 on the ECOG Performance Scale.
You likely can't join if
- ● Receipt of anticancer therapy within 28 days of the first administration of study treatment, with the exception of localized radiotherapy.
- ● Has received prior therapy with an anti-PD-1, anti-PD-L1, or anti-PD-L2 agent.
- ● Has received prior therapy with a selective FGFR inhibitor.
- ● Has received a live vaccine within 30 days of planned start of study therapy.
- • Has a history of calcium or phosphate homeostasis disorder or systemic mineral imbalance with ectopic calcification of soft tissues (exception: commonly observed calcifications in soft tissues such as the skin, kidney tendon, or vessels due to injury, disease, or aging in the absence of systemic mineral imbalance).
- • Use of any potent CYP3A4 inhibitors or inducers or moderate CYP3A4 inducers within 14 days or 5 half-lives (whichever is shorter) before the first dose of study drug.

- • Use of any potent CYP3A4 inhibitors or inducers or moderate CYP3A4 inducers within 14 days or 5 half-lives (whichever is shorter) before the first dose of study drug.
- • Has a history of hypovitaminosis D currently requiring supraphysiologic doses (eg, 50,000 UI/weekly) to replenish the deficiency. Vitamin D supplements are allowed.
- ● Toxicity of prior therapy that has not recovered to ≤ Grade 1 (with the exception of alopecia, peripheral neuropathy and anemia not requiring transfusional support), unless approved by the trial steering committee
- ● Is currently participating and receiving study therapy or has participated in a study of an investigational agent and received study therapy or used an investigational device within 4 weeks of the first dose of treatment.
- ● Has a history of (non-infectious) pneumonitis that required steroids or current pneumonitis.
- ● Hypersensitivity to pemigatinib or retifanlimab or any of its excipients.
- ● Has known active central nervous system (CNS) metastases and/or sarcomatous meningitis. Subjects with previously treated brain metastases may participate provided they are stable (without evidence of progression by imaging for at least four weeks prior to the first dose of trial treatment and any neurologic symptoms have returned to baseline), have no evidence of new or enlarging brain metastases, and are not using steroids for at least 7 days prior to trial treatment. This exception does not include sarcomatous meningitis which is excluded regardless of clinical stability.
- ● Has an active autoimmune disease requiring systemic immunosuppression with corticosteroids (> 10 mg/day of prednisone or equivalent) or immunosuppressive drugs within 14 days before the first dose of study treatment.
- ● Has an active infection requiring systemic antibiotics or antifungal or antiviral treatment within 7 days before first dose of study treatment.
- ● Is pregnant or breastfeeding, or expecting to conceive or father children within the projected duration of the trial, starting with the pre-screening or screening visit through 120 days after the last dose of trial treatment.
