FIND: a phase-II study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of erdafitinib in FGFR-altered NSCLC

A drug targeting FGFR mutations shows early promise for treating lung cancers with this genetic change.

This PubMed-indexed observational/cohort study examined FIND: a phase-II study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of erdafitinib in FGFR-altered NSCLC. The abstract reports that according to the first stage of the two-stage Simon's design, erdafitinib showed preliminary efficacy in NSCLC with FGFR fusions.
