• The futibatinib and other therapeutic agents used in this trial are known to be teratogenic. For this reason, patients of child-bearing potential (POCBP) and their partners with sperm-producing reproductive capacity must agree to use adequate contraception from time of informed consent, for the duration of study participation, and for 11 and 14 months for POCBP and men respectively, following completion of study drug therapy. Should a POCBP become pregnant or suspect they are pregnant while they or their partner are participating in this study, they should inform their treating physician immediately. Patients with sperm-producing reproductive capacity (PWSPRC) treated or enrolled on this protocol must also agree to use adequate contraception with partners of childbearing potential from 28 days prior to starting gemcitabine/cisplatin/durvalumab (including dose interruptions) for the duration of study participation, and 11 and 14 months for POCBP and men respectively, months after completion of study drug administration.

Male subjects must practice true abstinence or agree to use a condom during sexual contact with a female of childbearing potential or a pregnant female while on treatment (including during dose interruptions) with gemcitabine/cisplatin/durvalumab and for 14 months following, even if he has undergone a successful vasectomy.

• Note: A POCBP is any patient (regardless of gender, sexual orientation, having undergone a tubal ligation, or remaining celibate by choice) with an egg-producing reproductive tract who meets the following criteria:

  • Has not undergone a hysterectomy or bilateral oophorectomy

  • Has had menses at any time in the preceding 12 consecutive months (and therefore has not been naturally postmenopausal for > 12 months)

    • POCBP must have a negative pregnancy test prior to registration on study
    • Patients must have the ability to understand and the willingness to sign a written informed consent document and comply with the study requirements
    • Patients must have the ability to swallow, retain and absorb oral medications

Exclusion Criteria:

• Patients with peripheral neuropathy of grade 2 or greater by Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) 5.0. In CTCAE version 5.0 grade 2 sensory neuropathy is defined as "moderate symptoms; limiting instrumental activities of daily living (ADLs)
• Patients who are receiving any other investigational agents

• Patients who have current evidence of corneal or retinal disorder/keratopathy including, but not limited to, bullous/band keratopathy, inflammation or ulceration, keratoconjunctivitis, confirmed by ophthalmic examination

  • Note: Patients with asymptomatic ophthalmic conditions assessed by the investigator to pose minimal risk for study participation may be enrolled in the study
• Patients who have used medications known to prolong the QT interval and/or are associated with a risk of Torsades de Pointes (TdP) 7 days prior to first dose of study drug

• Patients with corrected QT interval using Fridericia formula (QTcF) > 470 msec (males and females)

  • Note: If the QTcF is > 470 msec in the first electrocardiogram (ECG), a total of 3 ECGs separated by at least 5 minutes should be performed. If the average of these 3 consecutive results for QTcF is ≤ 470 msec, the patient meets eligibility in this regard

  • Inorganic phosphorus above local normal limits
  • Total corrected serum calcium above local normal limits

• Patients who are currently receiving or are planning to receive during participation in this study, treatment with agents that are known strong inducers or inhibitors of CYP3A4

  • Note: Treated brain metastases are defined as having no evidence of progression or hemorrhage after treatment and no ongoing requirement for dexamethasone, as ascertained by clinical examination and brain imaging (MRI or CT) during the screening period. Anticonvulsants (stable dose) are allowed. Treatment for brain metastases may include whole brain radiotherapy (WBRT), radiosurgery (radiosurgery [RS]; gamma knife, linear accelerator [LINAC], or equivalent) or a combination as deemed appropriate by the treating physician

• Patients who are pregnant or nursing
• Patients with active alcohol use or illicit drug use that would, in the opinion of the principal investigator (PI) or a sub investigator (sub-I), prevent the subject from complying with the study protocol and/or endanger the subject during their participation in the study
