First seen Mar 03, 2026 · Last updated May 15, 2026 · Updated 8 times

Summary

This study tested an oral drug called infigratinib in 17 adults with advanced or metastatic solid tumors that have specific FGFR gene mutations. The goal was to see if the drug could shrink or control the cancer by blocking overactive FGFR proteins. While not a cure, the treatment aims to slow disease progression and improve outcomes for patients with these rare genetic changes.
