Eligibility
Key inclusion criteria
Inclusion Criteria

1. Age = 18 years.

2. A diagnosis of PVNS or GCT-TS (i) that has been histologically confirmed either by a
pathologist at the treating institution or a central pathologist, and (ii) where
surgical resection would be associated with potentially worsening functional
limitation or severe morbidity (locally advanced disease), with morbidity determined
consensually by qualified personnel (eg, two surgeons or a multi-disciplinary tumor
board).

3. Measurable disease of at least 2 cm and otherwise based on RECIST 1.1, assessed from
MRI scans by a central radiologist.

4. Symptomatic disease because of active PVNS or GCT-TS, defined as one or more of the
following:

1. a worst pain of at least 4 at any time during the week preceding the Screening
Visit (based on scale of 0 to 10, with 10 representing "pain as bad as you can
imagine").

2. a worst stiffness of at least 4 at any time during the week preceding the
Screening Visit (based on a scale of 0 to 10, with 10 representing "stiffness as
bad as you can imagine").

5. Stable prescription of analgesic regimen during the 2 weeks prior to randomization.

6. During the 2 weeks prior to randomization, at least 4 of 7 consecutive days of Brief
Pain Inventory (BPI) Worst Pain Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) items and Worst Stiffness
NRS items completed correctly.

7. Women of childbearing potential must have a negative serum pregnancy test within the
14-day period prior to randomization. (Where demanded by local regulations, this test
may be required within 72 hours of randomization.)

consent to avoid getting their partner pregnant or becoming pregnant, respectively, by
using a highly effective contraception method, as described below, throughout the
study and for up to 90 days after completion. Highly effective methods of
contraception include: intra-uterine device (non-hormonal or hormonal), bilateral
tubal occlusion, vasectomy, sexual abstinence, or barrier methods (eg, condom,
diaphragm) used in combination with hormonal methods associated with inhibition of
ovulation. Women of non-childbearing potential may be included if they are either
surgically sterile or have been postmenopausal for = 1 year. Women who have
documentation of at least 12 months of spontaneous amenorrhea and have a follicle
stimulating hormone (FSH) level > 40 milli-International units (mIU/mL) will be
considered postmenopausal.

Summary
Brief summary
This is a Phase 3 clinical study, which aims to evaluate the effectiveness of an
investigational drug called pexidartinib for the treatment of certain tumors for which
surgical removal could cause more harm than good.

The main purpose of this study is to gather information about the investigational drug
pexidartinib, which may help to treat tumors of pigmented villonodular synovitis (PVNS) or
giant cell tumor of the tendon sheath (GCT-TS).

The study consists of two parts with a follow-up period. In Part 1, eligible study
participants will be assigned to receive either pexidartinib or matching placebo for 24
weeks. A number of assessments will be carried out during the course of the study, including
physical examinations, blood tests, imaging studies, electrocardiograms, and questionnaires.
MRI scans will be used to evaluate the response of the tumors to the treatment. Some
subjects, assigned to placebo in Part 1 transitioned to pexidartinib for Part 2.

Then a protocol amendment was written to allow only pexidartinib patients to continue into
Part 2. Part 2 is a long-term treatment phase in which all participants receive open-label
pexidartinib. There was also a follow-up period added to Part 2.
