Atypical Histopathological Aspects of Common Types of Lung Cancer-Our Experience and Literature Review. (PubMed, Medicina (Kaunas))
Recent studies associated clear cell morphology with FGFR3-TACC3 fusion, suggesting that patients with this diagnosis may be potentially eligible for FGFR inhibitors. We described, for the first time, the pseudoangiosarcomatous pattern in a case of lung adenocarcinoma; to our knowledge this aspect has only been described until now in the context of squamous cell carcinomas.

Diffuse Gliomas with FGFR3-TACC3 Fusions: Oncogenic Mechanisms, Hallmarks, and Therapeutic Perspectives. (PubMed, Cancers (Basel))
Several FGFR inhibitors were tested in FGFR3-TACC3 fusion-positive gliomas and proved some efficacy, although inferior to the results seen in other FGFR3-TACC3 fusion-driven cancers. In this review, we summarize and discuss the state-of-the-art knowledge resulting from a 10-year research effort in the field, its clinical implications for glioma patients, the potential reasons for targeted therapy failures, and the perspective of emerging treatments.

Optimizing the role of the advanced practice provider in the management of a single patient investigational new drug (IND) (SNO 2023)
Extended genomic profiling of his tumor at time of biopsy revealed a FGFR3-TACC3 fusion and MGMT promoter methylation, and the decision was made to pursue a single patient IND for anlotinib for use in combination with temozolomide. As first point of contact for the patient and family, the APP plays a key role in glioma research within the multidisciplinary team by providing ongoing symptom management, education, and monitoring for patients receiving investigational drugs.

Molecular profiling and actionable mutations in adult patients with IDH wild type gliomas and glioneuronal and neuronal tumors (SNO 2023)
Three patients recurred after first-line therapy: 1 with BRAF mutated GBM, 1 with GBM harboring FGFR3-TACC3 fusion, and 1 with NTRK1 fusion positive glioneuronal tumor received specific BRAF/MEK inhibitor (dabrafenib/trametinib), FGFR inhibitor (pemigatinib), and NTRK inhibitor (larotrectinib), respectively. The incidence of actionable molecular alterations in IDH wt gliomas and glioneuronal/neuronal tumors was low. However, the use of targeted therapies may lead to significant impact on the outcome.

AMB302/GR1017, an antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) with topoisomerase 1 inhibitor shows therapeutic potency in orthotopic glioblastoma PDX and bladder cancer models with FGFR3-TACC3 fusion (AACR 2023)
AMB302/GR1017 showed robust anti-tumor efficacies in F3-T3 fusion and FGFR3 overexpression models derived from GBM and BC in vitro and in vivo. In addition, AMB302/GR1017 was well tolerated with no adverse effects in rodent model. Our data suggest AMB302/GR1017 has a potential therapeutic option as a first-in-class FGFR3 targeting ADC for GBM, BC, and other solid tumors with FGFR3 overexpression or alterations.

Efficacy and safety of derazantinib (DZB) in patients with metastatic urothelial carcinoma (mUC) with activating FGFR1/2/3 genetic aberrations (GA): Results from the phase 1b/2 FIDES-02 study. (ASCO-GU 2023)
Derazantinib showed signals of clinical activity in some patients with mUC and FGFR1-3 GA but the observed ORR and PFS did not meet contemporary benchmarks that would support further clinical development of derazantinib as monotherapy in this indication. Derazantinib showed a well-manageable safety profile with low rates of hand-foot syndrome, stomatitis, nail toxicity and retinal side effects. Clinical trial information: NCT04045613.

Varied histomorphology and clinical outcomes of FGFR3-TACC3 fusion gliomas. (PubMed, Neurosurg Focus)
One patient received erdafitinib, a targeted FGFR inhibitor, for 3 months at late disease recurrence and no response was seen...However, further research is needed to examine whether IDH1/2-wild-type tumors with FGFR3-TACC3 fusion should be classified as a subtype on the basis of this molecular fusion. Because patients with IDH1/2-wild-type GBM with FGFR3-TACC3 fusion have improved survival, routine molecular testing for this mutation in patients enrolled in clinical trials and subsequent stratification may be warranted.

Dual targeting of FGFR3 and ERBB3 enhances the efficacy of FGFR inhibitors in FGFR3 fusion-driven bladder cancer. (PubMed, BMC Cancer)
We demonstrate that increased expression of pERBB3 is a key mechanism of adaptive resistance to FGFR inhibitors in FGFR3-fusion driven bladder cancers, and that this also occurs rapidly following FGFR inhibitor treatment. Our findings demonstrate that resistance can be overcome by combination treatment with a pan-ERBB inhibitor and suggest that upfront combination treatment with FGFR and pan-ERBB inhibitors warrants further investigation for FGFR3-fusion harbouring bladder cancers.

A cell-free RNA-based next-generation sequencing (NGS) assay for the detection of actionable gene fusions in patients with non–small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). (ASCO 2022)
This novel cfRNA assay can detect actionable gene fusions and exon skipping events in liquid biopsies with high sensitivity. Combining cfRNA with more routine cfDNA testing can increase the total actionable diagnostic information from non-invasive testing in NSCLC patients where tissue samples are lacking, especially for gene fusions not amenable to detection in cfDNA.

HSP90-CDC37 functions as a chaperone for the oncogenic FGFR3-TACC3 fusion. (PubMed, Mol Ther)
Notably, F3-T3 was found to be highly expressed in both untreated and matched recurrence glioblastoma under the concurrent radiotherapy and temozolomide (TMZ) treatment, suggesting that targeting F3-T3 is a valid strategy for treatment...HSP90 inhibitors sensitized F3-T3 glioma cells to TMZ via inhibition of F3-T3 activation and potentiated TMZ-induced DNA damage. These results demonstrate that F3-T3 oncogenic function is dependent on the HSP90 chaperone system and suggests a new clinical option for targeting this genetic aberration in cancer.

[VIRTUAL] Final results of APOLLO study: Overall survival (OS) of aumolertinib in patients with pretreated EGFR T790M-positive locally advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) (ESMO 2021)
Clinical benefit in OS was observed in pts with pretreated EGFR T790M-positive advanced NSCLC receiving aumolertinib. The common mechanisms of resistance to aumolertinib were EGFR C797S mutation and aberrations in bypass tracks.
