478 Background: Erdafitinib is FDA-approved for patients (pts) with advanced urothelial carcinoma (aUC) with FGFR2/3 mutation or fusion and progression after platinum-based chemotherapy. It is postulated that FGFR3-altered aUC may be a “cold tumor” and associated with non-T cell-inflamed phenotype and, thus, may be less responsive to ICI. We hypothesized that pts with aUC that harbor FGFR2/3 alterations would have lower response and shorter survival on ICI. Methods: We performed a retrospective cohort study of pts with aUC treated with ICI and available genomic data in 11 institutions; pts with pure non-UC, treated with combinations or on clinical trial were excluded. Outcomes (overall response rate [ORR], progression free survival [PFS] and overall survival [OS] were compared in pts with and without FGFR2/3 alterations. PFS and OS was compared using Cox proportional hazards. All analyses were performed in the overall population and also categorized by treatment line (1st line [1L] vs salvage [2+L]). Multivariable models were adjusted for an internally developed risk score for 1L and Bellmunt risk score for 2+L; p
