Mutant-selective inhibitor CGT6297 in advanced solid tumors with PIK3CA mutations

Official title: A Study of a Mutant-Selective Inhibitor, CGT6297, in Patients With Advanced Solid Tumors Harboring PIK3CA Mutations

Run by Cogent Biosciences, Inc. · NCT07383506 · Data updated 2026-11-12

This phase 1 study tests CGT6297 to see if it is safe and tolerable, and to get an early sense of activity, in adults with advanced solid tumors that have PIK3CA mutations.

Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Adults with advanced solid tumors harboring PIK3CA mutations, including endometrial cancer, certain breast cancers, and other PIK3CA-mutant tumors, who have been previously treated.

Probably not a fit

Patients whose tumors do not respond to CGT6297 or who discontinue due to toxicity may not benefit.

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This is a two-part, open-label, nonrandomized phase 1 trial of CGT6297, using dose escalation and signal-seeking cohorts to evaluate safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and preliminary anti-tumor activity in adults with PIK3CA-mutant solid tumors. The study includes a first-in-human dose-escalation phase (phase 1a) and a cohort expansion phase (phase 1b) focusing on endometrial cancer, HR-positive/HER2-negative or HER2-low breast cancer, and other solid tumors with PIK3CA mutations. Participants must have previously received and exhausted standard therapies unless defined otherwise for specific cohorts. Key outcomes include adverse events, recommended phase 2 dose, and preliminary antitumor signals. The trial is sponsored by Cogent Biosciences and conducted at multiple U.S. sites.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: Participants may experience disease stabilization or tumor shrinkage if the drug shows activity at tolerated doses.

How similar studies have gone: Prior research with mutant-selective inhibitors in PI3K-altered cancers has shown early signals of activity in selected patients, but this approach is still early-stage for CGT6297.

Inclusion Criteria:

1. Histologically confirmed advanced solid tumor harboring oncogenic PIK3CA mutations in blood and/or tumor:

   1. Phase 1b Cohort 1, participants must have PIK3CA endometrial cancer
   2. Phase 1b Cohort 2, participants must have HR-positive/HER2-negative or HER2-low breast cancer (immunohistochemistry \[IHC\] and in-situ hybridization results must meet ASCO-College of American Pathology guidelines for breast cancer or criteria)
   3. Phase 1b Cohort 3 will allow all solid tumors that do not meet criteria for Phase 1b Cohorts 1 or 2, including head and neck cancers, other gynecological cancers, colorectal cancers harboring PIK3CA mutations
2. Meet prior treatment requirement of:

   1. Phase 1a: previously treated with and refractory to or intolerant of existing therapy(ies) known to provide clinical benefit for their condition.
   2. Phase 1b: previously treated with or considered not appropriate for SOC first-line treatment for their condition
3. Have at least one measurable lesion according to RECIST v1.1.
4. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) Performance Status 0 to 1
5. Have clinically acceptable local laboratory screening results (clinical chemistry and hematology) within certain limits
6. Resolution of acute toxicities from prior anticancer therapy to ≤Grade 1 (or baseline), including resolution of clinically significant laboratory abnormalities (other than parameters specified in screening testing as outlined below), as determined by the National Cancer Institute-Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCICTCAE) v5.0.
7. Have an ejection fraction ≥50%

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Received small molecule chemotherapy or anticancer therapies or radiotherapy within certain timeframes before first dose of study drug.
2. Major surgeries (eg, abdominal laparotomy) within 4 weeks of the first dose of study drug
3. Treatment with radiotherapy ≤2 weeks before the first dose of study drug.
4. Clinically significant cardiac disease
5. Ongoing or planned long-term (≥4 consecutive weeks) treatment with glucocorticoid steroids at greater than physiologic dosing (defined as equivalent to \>20 mg/day prednisone)
6. Diagnosis of diabetes mellitus type 1 or uncontrolled diabetes mellitus type 2 (defined as fasting glucose ≥140 mg/dL and HbA1c ≥7.0%; antihyperglycemic medical management permitted with the exception of insulin)
7. Previous molecular testing (NGS or PCR) showed tumor with the following mutations: mutations/deletions in PTEN or activating mutations in AKT, HRAS/KRAS/NRAS, EGFR, and BRAF
