Fibroblast growth factor (FGFR) alterations are implicated across a range of solid tumors, promoting oncogenesis as a result of amplification, mutations, and structural variations. The FGFR gene family consists of four highly conserved transmembrane tyrosine kinase receptors (FGFR1–4).

Recently, the cIMPACT-NOW released update 4 and update research, which considered FGFR alterations as a marker in brain tumor classification and prognosis.
