Erdafitinib treatment in metastatic urothelial carcinoma: a real-world analysis. Front Oncol 2023; 13:1151701. [PMID: 37293597 PMCID: PMC10244774 DOI: 10.3389/fonc.2023.1151701] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/27/2023] [Accepted: 05/03/2023] [Indexed: 06/10/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Erdafitinib, a fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR) inhibitor is a standard post chemotherapy advanced treatment line for metastatic urothelial carcinoma harboring FGFR2/3 genomic alterations. It was approved based on a phase 2 clinical trial, revealing a 40% response rate, and 13.8 months overall survival. These FGFR genomic alterations are uncommon. Thus, real-world data on erdafitinb use is scant. We herein describe erdafitinib treatment outcome in a real world patient cohort. Methods We retrospectively reviewed the data of patients treated with erdafitinib from 9 Israeli medical centers. Results Twenty-five patients with metastatic urothelial carcinoma (median age 73, 64% male, 80% with visceral metastases) were treated with erdafitinib between January 2020 to October 2022. A clinical benefit (complete response 12%, partial response 32%, stable disease 12%) was seen in 56%. Median progression-free survival was 2.7 months, and median overall survival 6.73 months. Treatment related toxicity ≥ grade 3 occurred in 52%, and 32% discontinued therapy due to adverse events. Conclusions Erdafitinib therapy is associated with a clinical benefit in the real world setting, and associated with similar toxicity as reported in prospective clinical trials.

Zheng X, Wang H, Deng J, Yao M, Zou X, Zhang F, Ma X. Safety and efficacy of the pan-FGFR inhibitor erdafitinib in advanced urothelial carcinoma and other solid tumors: A systematic review and meta-analysis. Front Oncol 2023; 12:907377. [PMID: 36776367 PMCID: PMC9909824 DOI: 10.3389/fonc.2022.907377] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/26/2022] [Accepted: 12/13/2022] [Indexed: 01/28/2023] Open
Abstract
Objective This review aimed to comprehensively analyze the safety and efficacy of erdafitinib in treating advanced and metastatic urothelial carcinoma and other solid tumors. Methods PubMed, Embase, and ClinicalTrials.gov were searched until 10 February 2022. The safety outcome as adverse events and efficacy outcomes, including objective response rate, stable disease rates, and progressive disease rates, were selected and analyzed by comprehensive meta-analysis version 3.0 and STATA 15.0. Results The most common all-grade adverse events were hyperphosphatemia, dry mouth, stomatitis, diarrhea, and dysgeusia. The occurrence of ≥3 adverse events was relatively low, and stomatitis and hyponatremia were the most common. Moreover, eye disorders could not be ignored. Efficacy in urothelial carcinoma patients was obviously better than in other solid tumor patients, with a higher objective response rate (0.38 versus 0.10) and lower progressive disease rate (0.26 versus 0.68). All responses occurred in patients with fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR) alteration. In those patients, a specific FGFR alteration (FGFR3-TACC3) was observed to have a maximum response. Conclusion Erdafitinib has satisfactory clinical activity for metastatic urothelial carcinoma and other solid tumors, while the toxicity is acceptable. With more RCTs and combination therapy trials published, erdafitinib will be applied widely.

THEM6: A Novel Molecular Biomarker Predicts Tumor Microenvironment, Molecular Subtype, and Prognosis in Bladder Cancer. DISEASE MARKERS 2022; 2022:7147279. [PMID: 35909893 PMCID: PMC9334031 DOI: 10.1155/2022/7147279] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/02/2022] [Accepted: 05/19/2022] [Indexed: 12/24/2022]
Abstract
Background Thioesterase superfamily member 6 (THEM6) has been implicated in the development and progression of various cancers. However, prior research emphasized on its regulatory role merely, we aim to investigate the effect of THEM6 gene on the immunological role and its relationship with molecular subtype in bladder cancer (BLCA). Methods Through pan-cancer analysis, we explored the THEM6 expression pattern and immunological role using The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database. In addition, we performed a correlation of THEM6 and its immunological functions, including immunomodulators, immune checkpoints, cancer immunity cycles, T cell inflamed score, and tumor-infiltrating immune cells in the BLCA tumor microenvironment (TME) based on TCGA and BLCA microarray cohort from Xiangya Hospital. We also assessed the accuracy of THEM6 in predicting the molecular subtype and its response to different interventions in BLCA. Finally, we computed and validated a prediction model established by THEM6-related different expressed immune-related genes that might help in BLCA prognosis. Results THEM6 led to immunosuppression in BLCA TME. Furthermore, there was a downregulation in the immunological functions. Besides, THEM6 could effectively distinguish BLCA molecular subtypes, and THEM6 low expression implied basal subtype that was more effective to several interventions, such as immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) therapies, neoadjuvant chemotherapy, and radiotherapy. While THEM6 high expression indicated luminal subtype, hyperprogression and better response to targeted therapies, such as blocking THEM6 and several immune-inhibited oncogenic pathways. Conclusions THEM6 may be with potential immune-modulating properties and may become a potential new immunotherapy target for BLCA. THEM6 could accurately predict the molecular subtype of BLCA, which was helpful for guiding the treatment. Simultaneously, the prediction model may exhibit an excellent predictive value in patients with BLCA.
