Drug Name | Trade Name | Synonyms | Drug Classes | Drug Description |
---|---|---|---|---|
Erdafitinib | Balversa | JNJ-42756493 | FGFR Inhibitor (Pan) 26 | Balversa (erdafitinib) selectively inhibits FGFR1-4, resulting in decreased downstream signaling, and potentially leading to reduced growth of tumors with activated FGFR signaling (PMID: 28341788, PMID: 28965185). Balversa (erdafitinib) is FDA approved for use in patients with locally advanced or metastatic urothelial carcinoma with susceptible FGFR3 genetic alterations (FDA.gov). |
Gefitinib | Iressa | ZD1839 | EGFR Inhibitor (Pan) 62 EGFR Inhibitor 1st gen 3 | Iressa (gefitinib) is a first-generation EGFR inhibitor that binds EGFR and inhibits downstream signaling, potentially resulting in decreased growth of tumors with EGFR activation (PMID: 26980062, PMID: 25302162, PMID: 15284455). Iressa (gefitinib) is FDA approved for use in patients with non-small cell lung cancer harboring an EGFR exon 19 deletion or EGFR L858R (FDA.gov). |

FGFR3 S249C | transitional cell carcinoma | sensitive | Erdafitinib + Gefitinib | Preclinical - Pdx & cell culture | Actionable | In a preclinical study, combination treatment with Balversa (erdafitinib) and Iressa (gefitinib) inhibited cell growth of patient-derived urothelial cancer cells harboring FGFR3 S249C and PIK3CA E545A in culture, and led to synergistic inhibition of tumor growth in a patient-derived xenograft (PDX) model (PMID: 37377403). | 37377403 |
