Mutation information

Results of immune monotherapy

Refs

FGFR dysregulation reduces immunotherapy efficacy

Locally advanced and unresectable or metastatic UC

NCT02365597

FGFR Mutations /Fusions

1 of 22 patients (5%) responded to previous immunotherapy

[9]

Melanoma

GSE78220

FGFR1/FGFR3 +

High FGFR1 + pts have Shorter OS; FGFR3 + pts have poorer PFS

[111, 204]

Advanced UC

Real world

FGFR+

OS: FGFR+/FGFR- (3.1 mo vs. 6.1 mo, HR 1.33, 95% CI 0.78–2.26, p = 0.30)

[184]

Advanced UC

NCT03390504

FGFR+

FGFR + pts have shorter OS and lower ORR and DCR

[186]

NSCLC, Esophageal carcinoma etc.

Real world

FGF3/4/19 amplification

Tumor hyperprogression

[189]

FGFR dysregulation enhances immunotherapy efficacy

Melanoma

Real world

FGFR Mutations

FGFR + pts have better mOS and higher ORR

[193]

Nonsmall cell lung cancer

Real world

FGFR4-altered pts have better ORR and longer mPFS

[194]

FGFR dysregulation not associated with immunotherapy efficacy

Metastatic Advanced UC

IMvigor 210 + CheckMate 275

FGFR3 Mutations

There was no statistically significant difference in response rate or OS
