Statistically significant improvements in OS, PFS, and ORR were demonstrated for erdafitinib compared with chemotherapy. Median OS was 12.1 months (95% CI: 10.3, 16.4) for patients who received erdafitinib and 7.8 months (95% CI: 6.5, 11.1) for those who received chemotherapy (hazard ratio [HR] 0.64 [95% CI: 0.47, 0.88]; p-value=0.0050).
Converts and modifies the indication of the 2019 Accelerated Approval, converting to traditional approval in 57 months.
