FGFR2-BICC1: A Subtype Of FGFR2 Oncogenic Fusion Variant In Cholangiocarcinoma And The Response To Sorafenib.

Abstract

Fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR) family includes four highly conserved receptor tyrosine kinases. Particularly, FGFR2 has been identified as a potential target for tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) treatment. Except for immunohistochemistry and fluorescence in situ hybridization, next-generation sequencing (NGS) technology represents a novel tool for FGFR2 detection that covers a wide range of fusion genes. In the present work, we present a case of cholangiocarcinoma who had FGFR2-BICC1 rearrangement detected by NGS. A 76-year-old female diagnosed with cholangiocarcinoma underwent four cycles of chemotherapy. The NGS assay showed that the tumor had a FGFR2-BICC1 rearrangement. The patient had a favorable tumor response to sorafenib. Herein, we report the first case with cholangiocarcinoma harboring FGFR2-BICC1 who is sensitive to sorafenib therapy.
