Activating FGFR3 alterations have been identified in up to 15-20% of muscle-invasive bladder cancer and metastatic urothelial carcinoma (mUC), and as high as 80% in nonmuscle invasive bladder cancers. FGFR3 germline mutations have also been associated with a variety of skeletal dysplasias. Achondroplasia, the most common form of dwarfism in humans, results from a G380R mutation in FGFR3. The pan-FGFR inhibitor erdafitinib was approved for the treatment of mUC with FGFR3 alterations but is limited due to FGFR isoform off-target toxicities and the development of on-target gatekeeper resistance mutations. TYRA-300 ( 22 ) was conceived using a structure-based approach as a potent FGFR3-selective inhibitor to avoid the toxicities associated with inhibition of FGFR1, FGFR2, and FGFR4, and to be agnostic for the FGFR3 gatekeeper mutations. TYRA-300 is being evaluated in a Phase 1 clinical trial in urothelial cancers and solid tumors, with intention to initiate Phase 2 studies in urothelial cancers and achondroplasia.
