Infigratinib (BGJ398): an investigational agent for the treatment of FGFR-altered intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma

Infigratinib exhibits high potency FGFR1-3 inhibition in preclinical studies. Clinically, agents targeting FGFR including infigratinib show promising anti-tumor activity in targeted trials. Pemigatinib, an FGFR inhibitor, has recently been approved by the FDA for use in refractory IHCA. We believe infigratinib represents a promising agent in the treatment of refractory IHCA with FGFR2 fusions and is uniquely positioned to be a potential option in chemonaive patient populations. An ongoing phase III trial (PROOF-301) compares the efficacy and safety of infigratinib versus standard gemcitabine and cisplatin in untreated patients with IHCA and FGFR2 fusions.
