Table 1.

Common FGFR genomic aberration in solid tumors. FGF signaling deregulation is involved in the development of many different human cancers. Four FGFR genomic alterations are represented in this table: gene amplification, point mutations, chromosomal translocations, and FGFR splicing isoforms. Each FGFR alteration is linked with the most significant cancers that contain those alterations. The role of the majority of the discovered point mutations in FGFR is unknown in cancer. Adapted from [10,18].

Gene Gene Amplifications Point Mutations Chromosomal Translocations Splice Variants
FGFR1 Breast, ovarian, bladder, and lung cancer Majority of cancers. Example: Melanoma Stem cell leukemia/lymphoma (SCLL), GBM IIIc: small cell lung carcinoma
Iβ: breast cancer and GBM
FGFR2 Breast, gastric, lung cancer Majority of cancers. Example: Endometrial carcinoma IIIb: breast, endometrial, cervical, lung, pancreatic and colorectal cancer
IIIc: prostate cancers
FGFR3 Bladder cancer Majority of cancers. Example: bladder cancer GBM, T-cell lymphoma and bladder IIIc: bladder cancer
FGFR4 Colorectal cancer Majority of cancers. Example: metastatic breast cancer and rhabdomyosarcoma
