Futibatinib is an inhibitor of Fibroblast Growth Factor receptor (FGFR), which comprises a group of receptor tyrosine kinases that play a key role in cell proliferation, differentiation, migration, and survival. FGFR was investigated in oncology as a therapeutic target, as FGFR genomic aberrations and dysregulated FGFR signalling pathways are observed in some cancers such as cholangiocarcinoma and urothelial malignancies. As a novel inhibitor of FGFR, futibatinib was first approved by the FDA in September 2022 to treat different types of intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma. On July 4, 2023, the European Commission granted Conditional Marketing Authorization for futibatinib for the treatment of cholangiocarcinoma.
