Overview

NCI Definition [1]:
An inhibitor of the fibroblast growth factor (FGF)/fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR) pathway, with potential antineoplastic activity. Upon administration, the FGF/FGFR pathway inhibitor E7090 selectively interferes with the binding of FGF to FGFR through an as of yet not fully elucidated mechanism. This inhibits FGFR-mediated signaling and leads to both cell proliferation inhibition and cell death in FGFR-overexpressing tumor cells. FGFR is a receptor tyrosine kinase essential to tumor cell proliferation, differentiation, and survival; its expression is upregulated in many tumor cell types.

E7090 has been investigated in 4 clinical trials, of which 4 are open and 0 are closed. Of the trials investigating e7090, 2 are phase 1 (2 open) and 2 are phase 2 (2 open).

FGFR2 Fusion, FGFR1 Amplification, and FGFR1 Fusion are the most frequent biomarker inclusion criteria for e7090 clinical trials.

Malignant solid tumor, breast carcinoma, and intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma are the most common diseases being investigated in e7090 clinical trials [2].
