Identification of potent biparatopic antibodies targeting FGFR2 fusion-driven cholangiocarcinoma.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Translocations involving FGFR2 gene fusions are common in cholangiocarcinoma and predict response to FGFR kinase inhibitors. However, response rates and durability are limited due to the emergence of resistance, typically involving FGFR2 kinase domain mutations, and to suboptimal dosing, relating to drug adverse effects. Here, we develop biparatopic antibodies targeting the FGFR2 extracellular domain (ECD) as candidate therapeutics. Biparatopic antibodies can overcome drawbacks of bivalent monospecific antibodies, which often show poor inhibitory or even agonist activity against oncogenic receptors. We show that oncogenic transformation by FGFR2 fusions requires an intact ECD. Moreover, by systematically generating biparatopic antibodies targeting distinct epitope pairs in FGFR2 ECD, we identified antibodies that effectively block signaling and malignant growth driven by FGFR2 fusions. Importantly, these antibodies demonstrate efficacy in vivo, synergy with FGFR inhibitors, and activity against FGFR2 fusions harboring kinase domain mutations. Thus, we believe that biparatopic antibodies may serve as an innovative treatment option for patients with FGFR2-altered cholangiocarcinoma.
