Clinical Implication of Concurrent Amplification of MET and FGFR2 in Metastatic Gastric Cancer
Background: c-mesenchymal epithelial transition factor receptor (c-MET) and fibroblast growth factor receptor 2 (FGFR2) amplification have been identified as factors associated with advanced stage and poor prognosis in gastric cancer (GC). While they are

Background Cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) is a primary malignancy of the biliary tract with a dismal prognosis. Recently, several actionable genetic aberrations were identified with significant enrichment in intrahepatic CCA, including FGFR2 gene fusions with ...

Cancer Mutations in FGFR2 Prevent a Negative Feedback Loop Mediated by the ERK1/2 Pathway
Tight regulation of signaling from receptor tyrosine kinases is required for normal cellular functions and uncontrolled signaling can lead to cancer. Fibroblast growth factor receptor 2 (FGFR2) is a receptor tyrosine kinase that induces proliferation and

FGFR2 amplification in colorectal adenocarcinoma [PDF]
FGFR2 is recurrently amplified in 5% of gastric cancers and 1%–4% of breast cancers; however, this molecular alteration has never been reported in a primary colorectal cancer specimen. Preclinical studies indicate that several FGFR tyrosine-kinase inhibitors (TKIs), such as AZD4547, have in vitro activity against the FGFR2-amplified colorectal cell ...

Deletion of fibroblast growth factor receptor 2 from the peri-wolffian duct stroma leads to ureteric induction abnormalities and vesicoureteral reflux. [PDF]
Pax3cre-mediated deletion of fibroblast growth factor receptor 2 (Fgfr2) broadly in renal and urinary tract mesenchyme led to ureteric bud (UB) induction defects and vesicoureteral reflux (VUR), although the mechanisms were unclear. Here, we investigated

According to previous reports,10-16% of patients with clinically advanced cholangiocarcinoma develop FGFR2 fusions or rearrangements. Treatment with FGFR2-specific inhibitors (tyrosine kinase inhibitors, TKIs) has proven effective for patients with cholangiocarcinoma.

Tripod-shaped Syndactyly in Apert Syndrome with FGFR2 p.P253R Mutation
Apert syndrome is a rare acrocephalosyndactyly (craniosynostosis) syndrome characterized by craniofacial dysmorphism and syndactyly of the hands and feet. It is caused by FGFR2 mutations and inherited in an autosomal dominant manner.

Clinical Features of Apert Syndrome in Infancy: A rare case in Indonesia
Background: Apert syndrome is characterized by several malformations of cranial-facial and syndactyly. The incidence of Apert syndrome was reported at approximately 1 per 65,000 live births, globally.
