European Commission approves BALVERSA (erdafitinib), the first pan-FGFR kinase inhibitor, for metastatic urothelial carcinoma patients.

European Commission approves BALVERSA (erdafitinib), the 1st pan-FGFR kinase inhibitor, for adults with metastatic urothelial carcinoma who've had at least 1 PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitor. Approval based on THOR study, which showed a 36% reduced risk of death with erdafitinib vs chemotherapy, with a median overall survival of over 1 year for erdafitinib patients. This marks a significant advancement for patients with metastatic bladder cancer, a common cancer type in Europe with high unmet need for innovative treatments.
