Rogaratinib (formerly also known as BAY1163877; BAY-1163877) is a novel, orally available, potent and selective inhibitor of aberrant fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR) with anticancer activity. In lung cancer (LC), aberrant activation or expression of the fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR) is frequently observed. The receptor tyrosine kinases FGFR-1, -2, and -3 are inhibited by rogaratinib. These kinases are upregulated in different types of tumor cells and may play a role in the differentiation, proliferation, angiogenesis, and survival of tumor cells.

Biological Activity
| Targets | FGFR1; FGFR2; FGFR3; FGFR4 |
| ln Vitro | The FGFR1-amplified lung cancer (LC) cell lines H1581 and DMS114, which have GI50 values ranging from 36 to 244 nM, exhibit extreme sensitivity to rogaratinib (BAY1163877) out of the 24 cell lines. When H1581P cells are treated with rogaratinib, their ability to form colonies is significantly reduced, but H1581AR and BR cell colonies are not affected. Rogaratinib resistance is markedly increased in MTT assays by ectopic expression of Met. Metabolic overexpression triggers the activation of AKT and downstream extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 (ERK1/2), which is irreversible upon treatment with rogaratinib[1]. |
| Cell Assay | On 96-well plates, cells are seeded at 37°C (3000 cells/well). Following a night of incubation, the cells receive a 72-hour Rogaratinib treatment. After that, each well is filled with MTT reagent (3-(4,5-Dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazoliumbromide), which is then incubated for four hours at 37°C. Each well is filled with MTT solubilization solution/stop mix, combined, and the plates are then incubated at 37°C for the entire night. The data are shown graphically once the absorbance at 570 nm has been measured[1]. |

| Additional Infomation |
Rogaratinib is under investigation in clinical trial NCT03762122 (Rogaratinib in Patients With Advanced Pretreated Squamous-cell Non-small Cell Lung Cancer (SQCLC)). Rogaratinib is a pan inhibitor of human fibroblast growth factor receptors (FGFRs) with potential antiangiogenic and antineoplastic activities. Rogaratinib inhibits the activities of FGFRs, which may result in the inhibition of both tumor angiogenesis and tumor cell proliferation, and the induction of tumor cell death. FGFRs are a family of receptor tyrosine kinases, which may be upregulated in various tumor cell types and may be involved in tumor cell differentiation and proliferation, tumor angiogenesis, and tumor cell survival. Drug Indication Treatment of urothelial carcinoma |
