Figure Lengend Snippet: Targeting FGF/FGFR signaling in lung cancer. Drugs targeting FGFR that are at the clinical stage include multitarget TKIs (nintedanib, dovitinib, pazopanib, and ponatinib) and selective TKIs (pan-FGFR inhibitors such as erdafitinib and rogaratinib; FGFR1/2/3 inhibitors such as pemigatinib, infigratinib and fexagratinib). FP-1039, which targets FGF, has also been investigated in clinical trials. New strategies for targeting FGF/FGFR include the use of FGFR degraders (DGY-09-192 and LC-MB12), specific FGFR inhibitors and anti-FGF2 aptamers
