Adverse dermatologic effects of erdafitinib in a patient with metastatic urothelial carcinoma. (PubMed, Dermatol Online J)
We present the case of a 61-year-old White man with metastatic urothelial carcinoma treated with 8 mg of erdafitinib daily who developed diffuse onychomadesis within a few months of initiating therapy. Awareness of the potential cutaneous side effects of erdafitinib and timely referral for specialty dermatologic care are important to allow treatment continuation.

Association between hyperphosphatemia and overall survival among patients with advanced urothelial cancer treated with erdafitinib in phase 2/3 clinical trials. (PubMed, Cancer)
In this secondary analysis of the BLC2001 and THOR trials, higher CTCAE hyperphosphatemia grades were associated with improved OS, PFS, and ORR. These findings suggest that hyperphosphatemia may serve as a potential biomarker of erdafitinib activity, and warrant prospective validation.

Preclinical Pharmacokinetics of Erdafitinib, an FGFR Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitor, via LC-MS/MS in Sprague Dawley Rats. (PubMed, Rapid Commun Mass Spectrom)
This validated LC-MS/MS method provides a rapid, sensitive, and cost-effective approach for erdafitinib quantification in preclinical plasma samples. Its application to pharmacokinetic studies supports drug development by enabling accurate assessment of exposure and disposition, thereby advancing pharmacological understanding and facilitating translation to clinical oncology research.

Stattic enhances the anti-tumor activity of AZD4547 in LUSC by blocking STAT3/RRM2-mediated DNA repair and inducing ROS-driven mitochondrial dysfunction. (PubMed, Cell Death Dis)
Mechanistically, dual inhibition disrupted the STAT3/RRM2 axis, promoting DNA damage and simultaneously provoking ROS-induced mitochondrial dysfunction. These findings nominate concurrent FGFR1 and STAT3 blockade as a promising therapeutic approach for FGFR1-positive lung squamous cell carcinomas.

Design and synthesis of an erdafitinib-based selective FGFR2 degrader. (PubMed, Beilstein J Org Chem)
In conclusion, this study successfully developed LC-JD-6, a novel FGFR2-selective degrader, and for the first time confirmed its ability to degrade the membrane-bound form of FGFR2. This work provides an innovative targeted protein degradation strategy for the treatment of FGFR2-driven tumors and holds significant potential for clinical application.

FGFR2-responsive self-assembled hydrogel releases its inhibitor to suppress the progression of endometriosis. (PubMed, J Control Release)
In this study, a rationally designed hydrogenator, Nap-Phe-Phe-Phe-Asp-Asp-Asp-Tyr-OH (NapY), was co-assembled with the FGFR2 inhibitor AZD4547 (AZD) to construct an FGFR2-responsive hydrogel, aiming to achieve precise targeted therapy for endometriosis...In vivo studies confirmed that compared with endometriosis model mice treated with free AZD, those treated with Gel Y/AZD exhibited significantly superior inhibitory effects on the growth and metastasis of ectopic lesions. It is anticipated that this research will expect to be applied in the clinical treatment of endometriosis in the near future.
