Infigratinib, sold under the brand name Truseltiq, is an anti-cancer medication used to treat cholangiocarcinoma (bile duct cancer).
The most common side effects include increased phosphate level in the blood, increased creatinine levels in the blood, nail changes, mouth sores, dry eye, fatigue, alopecia, and palmar-plantar erythrodysesthesia (rash, redness, pain, swelling or blisters on the palms of the hands or soles of the feet).
Infigratinib is a kinase inhibitor targeting the fibroblast growth factor receptors FGFR1, FGFR2, and FGFR3.
Infigratinib was approved for medical use in the United States in May 2021.
Infigratinib is indicated for the treatment of adults with previously treated, unresectable locally advanced or metastatic cholangiocarcinoma (bile duct cancer) with a fibroblast growth factor receptor 2 (FGFR2) fusion or other rearrangement as detected by an FDA-approved test.
The most common side effects include increased phosphate level in the blood, increased creatinine levels in the blood, nail changes, mouth sores, dry eye, fatigue, alopecia, and palmar-plantar erythrodysesthesia (rash, redness, pain, swelling or blisters on the palms of the hands or soles of the feet ).
Infigratinib may cause serious side effects including detachment of retina (inner layer of the eye), increased phosphate level in the blood, and harm to an unborn baby.
The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved infigratinib based on evidence from one clinical trial (NCT02150967) of 108 participants with bile duct cancer (cholangiocarcinoma). The CBGJ398X2204 trial was a multicenter open-label single-arm trial that enrolled 108 participants with previously treated, unresectable locally advanced or metastatic cholangiocarcinoma with an FGFR2 fusion or rearrangement as determined by local or central testing. The trials were conducted at 18 sites in the United States, Europe, and Asia. The trial enrolled adult participants with bile duct cancer who had been treated previously with chemotherapy for their advanced cancer and whose tumors had a certain type of abnormality in the FGFR2 gene. Participants received infigratinib once daily by mouth for 21 consecutive days followed by 7 days off therapy. This 28-day cycle was administered until disease progression or the side effects became too toxic. The trial measured the percentage of participants who achieved partial or complete shrinkage of their cancer and how long that shrinkage lasted (duration of response or DoR).
The FDA granted the application for infigratinib priority review, fast track, and orphan drug designations.
Infigratinib was designated an orphan drug by the FDA and the European Medicines Agency in 2021. It was approved for medical use under the FDA's accelerated approval program in May 2021.
