This is a Phase 1, open-label, first-in-human (FIH) study designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD) and antineoplastic activity of avapritinib (formerly BLU-285), administered orally (PO), in adult patients with unresectable GIST or other relapsed or refractory solid tumors. The study consists of 2 parts, a dose-escalation part (Part 1) and an expansion part (Part 2).

Patients with unresectable GIST must have disease that has progressed following imatinib and at least 1 of the following: sunitinib, regorafenib, sorafenib, dasatinib, pazopanib or an experimental kinase-inhibitor agent, or disease with a D842 mutation in the PDGFRα gene. Patients with an advanced solid tumor other than GIST must have relapsed or refractory disease without an available effective therapy.
