  26. Other acute or chronic diseases, psychiatric disorders, or laboratory abnormalities that may result in an increased risk associated with study participation or investigational drug administration or interfere with the interpretation of study results, and disqualify patients from the study in the investigator's judgment.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
This study is a prospective single-arm phase II clinical study. Advanced non-small cell lung cancer patients with FGFR 1-3 alterations (including but not limited to FGFR amplification, rearrangement/fusion, mutation, etc.) who have failed standard therapy will be enrolled in this study once they have signed the informed consent form (ICF) and been identified as eligible in screening.
Detailed Description
This study is a prospective single-arm phase II clinical study. Advanced non-small cell lung cancer patients with FGFR 1-3 alterations (including but not limited to FGFR amplification, rearrangement/fusion, mutation, etc.) who have failed standard therapy will be enrolled in this study once they have signed the informed consent form (ICF) and been identified as eligible in screening. The patients will receive 13.5 mg of pemigatinib once a day (QD) orally following a 2-week administration/1-week interruption regimen. They will be dosed until disease progression or intolerable toxicity. During treatment, clinical tumor imaging evaluation will be performed according to RECIST v1.1 every 6 weeks (± 7 days) and then every 9 weeks (± 7 days) after week 48. Safety will be assessed according to NCI-CTCAE 5.0.
