This case highlights the importance of early recognition of cutaneous lesions in patients on FGFR inhibitors. Prompt cessation of therapy, management of metabolic derangements, and consideration of sodium thiosulfate may be lifesaving.
This study establishes a comprehensive multi-omics atlas of resistance to the FGFR inhibitor AZD4547, delineating convergent mechanisms of metabolic reprogramming and EGFR-mediated bypass signaling. Our findings characterize the resistance as a dynamic network rewiring and nominate rational combination strategies to overcome this therapeutic bottleneck. While FGFR-EGFR co-inhibition is experimentally supported, metabolic co-targeting remains a computationally derived, hypothesis-generating strategy.

Furthermore, MD simulations introducing an additional dovitinib molecule to the FGFR1-dovitinib complex indicated the potential for weak and transient interactions in the preferred interaction regions on the FGFR1 surface. These findings highlight the multifaceted nature of kinase-inhibitor interactions and provide valuable biophysical insights that may contribute to future drug discovery efforts targeting receptor tyrosine kinases.
We developed CYB-5067 by equipping the pan-FGFR inhibitor Infigratinib with a minimal dibromoacetamide covalent warhead...Our work identifies RNF213 as an exploitable ligase for TPD and establishes covalent molecular glues as a modular platform. This strategy expands the scope of degrader design beyond conventional E3 ligases, offering an avenue for developing potent and selective therapeutics.
The findings support continued investigation of FGFR-targeted strategies in FGFR2-amplified GC/GEJ adenocarcinoma, while underscoring the need for larger studies, refined biomarker selection, and deeper characterization of resistance mechanisms.
This case demonstrates the significant therapeutic potential of pemigatinib in a patient with metastatic cholangiocarcinoma with FGFR2 fusion, where complete disease remission was achieved after previous progression on standard treatment.

In summary impaired FGFR downstream signaling mediated phosphaturia in SCD that could be modulated by BGJ398. We further suggest that osteopontin and aberrant integrin signaling contributes to kidney inflammation that can be partially rescued by BGJ398.
Recognition and management of dermatologic adverse effects are critical to minimizing morbidity in the setting of life-prolonging oncologic treatments. Given the limitations of a single-case inference, further surveillance and study are needed to determine whether patients with pre-existing psoriasis may be at increased risk.
In this study, by incorporating diverse molecular glue handles and amino acid-based degrons into the solvent-exposed exit vectors of infigratinib, we synthesized a library of 30 candidate MGDs...Mechanistic investigations revealed that the covalent engagement of the gluing handle is a critical determinant for successful proteasomal degradation of FGFR2. This work provides a framework for the rational transformation of kinase inhibitors into covalent molecular glue degraders, underscoring the potential of FGFR degradation as a next-generation precision medicine strategy for FGFR2-driven malignancies.
Pemigatinib (approved in 2021) demonstrated a response rate of 35.5%, futibatinib (approved in 2023) showed a response rate of 42%, and tasurgratinib (approved in 2024) achieved a response rate of 30.2%. Polyclonal on-target resistance to pan-FGFR inhibitors and increasing of FGFR2 kinase domain resistance mutations based on treatment history has been reported. Novel therapeutics, such as highly selective FGFR2 inhibitors and next-generation inhibitors, are developed and are expected to improve prognosis for patients with FGFR2 fusion-positive solid tumors.
This was the largest, first-line, randomized, phase 3 trial of a targeted therapy for advanced FGFR2-rearranged cholangiocarcinoma. Pemigatinib demonstrated prolonged median PFS compared with chemotherapy, with no new safety findings.
