Abstract 344: Targeting fibroblast growth factor signaling in prostate cancer

Currently no therapy effectively controls the progression of advanced human prostate cancer. We previously reported that fibroblast growth factor 9 (FGF9) contributes to the osteoblastic progression of human prostate cancer in bone (J Clin Invest 2008;118:2697). We examined the effect of TKI258 (a receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor [TKI] with strong activity against FGF receptor 1-3 [FGFR1-3; IC50 Citation Format: {Authors}. {Abstract title} [abstract].
