Deciphera Pharmaceuticals Announces Completion of Enrollment for Pivotal Phase 3 MOTION Study of Vimseltinib in TGCT

– Top-line Results Expected in the Fourth Quarter of 2023 –

– Phase 1/2 Data Demonstrated Vimseltinib’s Best-in-Class Potential for the Treatment of TGCT –

Deciphera Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ: DCPH), a biopharmaceutical company focused on discovering, developing, and commercializing important new medicines to improve the lives of people with cancer, today announced the completion of enrollment in the pivotal Phase 3 MOTION study of vimseltinib in patients with tenosynovial giant cell tumor (TGCT) not amenable to surgery. Deciphera expects to report top-line results in the fourth quarter of 2023.

“The rapid enrollment of the pivotal Phase 3 MOTION study underscores both the substantial unmet medical need for a highly effective and well-tolerated drug for patients with TGCT and the best-in-class therapeutic potential of vimseltinib,” said Matthew L. Sherman, M.D., Chief Medical Officer of Deciphera. “Results from the Phase 1/2 study of vimseltinib have demonstrated not only its compelling clinical activity, but also the favorable safety and tolerability profile essential for TGCT patients. We look forward to reporting top-line results from the MOTION study later this year.”

In September 2022, Deciphera presented updated results from the ongoing Phase 1/2 study of vimseltinib in TGCT at the European Society for Medical Oncology (ESMO) Congress. The results showed objective response rates of 69% in Phase 1, 53% in Phase 2 Cohort A, and 46% in Phase 2 Cohort B, with a demonstrated clinical benefit rate of 100% across all Phase 1/2 patients. Preliminary patient-reported outcome data in the Phase 2 portion demonstrated clinically meaningful improvements in pain and stiffness at week 25 compared to baseline. Treatment with vimseltinib across all Phase 1/2 patients was well-tolerated.

Phase 3 MOTION Study

The ongoing pivotal Phase 3 MOTION study of vimseltinib for the treatment of TGCT, which has completed enrollment, is a two-part, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study of vimseltinib to assess the efficacy and safety in patients with TGCT not amenable to surgery. The primary endpoint of the study is objective response rate at week 25 as measured by RECIST version 1.1 by blinded independent radiologic review.

About Vimseltinib

Vimseltinib is an investigational, orally administered, potent and highly selective switch-control kinase inhibitor of CSF1R. It was discovered using Deciphera’s proprietary drug discovery platform and was designed to selectively bind to the CSF1R switch pocket. Vimseltinib has demonstrated encouraging preliminary efficacy and safety data in patients with TGCT and is currently being evaluated in a Phase 1/2 clinical study. Phase 1 is the dose escalation portion of the study, Cohort A includes TGCT patients with no prior anti-CSF1/CSF1R therapy (previous therapy with imatinib or nilotinib is allowed) and Cohort B includes patients with prior anti-CSF1/CSF1R therapy. The Phase 3 MOTION study is a two-part, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study of vimseltinib to assess the efficacy and safety in patients with symptomatic TGCT who are not amenable to surgery, and has completed enrollment.
