Compound Overview
Futibatinib, also known as TAS-120, is an orally bioavailable, highly selective, irreversible FGFR inhibitor, with IC50 values of 3.9 nM, 1.3 nM, 1.6 nM and 8.3 nM for FGFR1-4, respectively. It inhibits mutant and wild-type FGFR2 with similar potency (wild-type FGFR2 = 0.9 nM; V5651 = 1-3 nM; N550H = 3.6 nM; E566G = 2.4 nM)[1][2][3]. It is supplied as a white to yellow solid (C22H22N6O3, MW 418.45) at 99.90% purity.

Safety
For Research Use Only. Not for use in diagnostic or therapeutic procedures, and not for human or veterinary use. Handle in accordance with the Safety Data Sheet and your institution's chemical hygiene plan.
In Vitro
| Solvent | Solubility | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| DMSO | ≥ 29 mg/mL (69.30 mM) | use freshly opened DMSO (absorbed moisture lowers solubility) |
Aliquot the stock solution and store it at -80°C (up to 1 year) or -20°C (up to 6 months); avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
In Vivo
Choose the formulation that suits the animal model and route of administration; percentages are volume ratios of the final working solution. Start from a clear DMSO stock (see In Vitro above), add the co-solvents one at a time in the order listed, mixing after each addition, and prepare the working solution fresh on the day of dosing. If precipitation or phase separation occurs, gentle warming or sonication can help.
Protocol 1
| Composition | 10% DMSO + 40% PEG300 + 5% Tween-80 + 45% saline |
|---|---|
| Result | 2.08 mg/mL (4.97 mM); suspension; requires sonication |
| How to prepare | Gives a suspension at 2.08 mg/mL. The suspension is suitable for oral and intraperitoneal dosing. For 1 mL of working solution: add 100 μL DMSO stock (20.8 mg/mL) to 400 μL PEG300; then 50 μL Tween-80; then 450 μL saline to bring the volume to 1 mL. Saline: dissolve 0.9 g sodium chloride in ddH2O and make up to 100 mL. |
Protocol 2
| Composition | 10% DMSO + 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in saline) |
|---|---|
| Result | 2.08 mg/mL (4.97 mM); suspension; requires sonication |
| How to prepare | Gives a suspension at 2.08 mg/mL. The suspension is suitable for oral and intraperitoneal dosing. For 1 mL of working solution: add 100 μL DMSO stock (20.8 mg/mL) to 900 μL 20% SBE-β-CD in saline. 20% SBE-β-CD in saline: dissolve 2 g SBE-β-CD powder in 10 mL saline until clear (4°C, store up to one week). |
Protocol 3
| Composition | 10% DMSO + 90% Corn Oil |
|---|---|
| Result | ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (4.97 mM); clear solution |
| How to prepare | Gives a clear solution at ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (saturation not determined). Use with caution if continuous dosing will exceed two weeks. For 1 mL of working solution: add 100 μL DMSO stock (20.8 mg/mL) to 900 μL corn oil. |

In Vitro
Futibatinib (TAS-120) binds covalently to a highly conserved P-loop cysteine residue located in the ATP pocket of FGFR[1].
In Vivo
In mice, Futibatinib (TAS-120) at 3, 30, 100 mg/kg/day (p.o.) exerts an anti-tumor effect. Intermittent dosing of Futibatinib (TAS-120) at moderate intervals, such as every other day and 2 times/week, also shows an anti-tumor effect, reduces the sustained elevation of blood phosphorus level and weight suppression, and gives antitumor effectiveness as with daily administration[1].

Animal Administration[1]
Transplant human gastric cancer strain (OCUM-2MD3) into the right chest of 6-week-old male nude rats for the anti-tumor effect test with the intermittent administration schedule of Test Example 7. After tumor implantation, measure the major axis (mm) and minor axis (mm) of the tumor and calculate the tumor volume (TV). Allocate the mice to groups (n=5) so that the average TV is equal in each group; the day of grouping is day 0. Prepare Futibatinib (TAS-120) at 3 mg/kg/day, 30 mg/kg/day, and 100 mg/kg/day. Administer 3 mg/kg/day orally every day, 30 mg/kg/day orally every other day, and 100 mg/kg/day orally 2 time/week from day 1. Set the evaluation period at 14 days, with the final evaluation date on day 15.
