Abstract excerpt
Abnormal activation of fibroblast growth factor receptor 2 (FGFR2) drives tumorigenesis in various cancers. Clinical use of pan-FGFR inhibitors is limited due to emerging acquired resistance mutations within the FGFR2 kinase domain and adverse effects associated with FGFR1/4 off-target inhibition. Herein, we describe the structure-based discovery of LC-F2-1, an FGFR2-selective inhibitor that demonstrates...
