Mechanism of Action

Amivantamab-vmjw is a bispecific antibody that binds to the extracellular domains of EGFR and MET. In studies, amivantamab-vmjw was able to disrupt EGFR and MET signaling functions through blocking ligand binding and, in exon 20 insertion mutation models, degradation of EGFR and MET. The presence of EGFR and MET on the surface of tumor cells also allows for targeting of these cells for destruction by immune effector cells, such as natural killer cells and macrophages, through antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity and trogocytosis mechanisms, respectively.

Rybrevant Indications

Indications

In combination with carboplatin and pemetrexed for the first-line treatment of adults with locally advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) exon 20 insertion mutations, as detected by an FDA-approved test. As a single agent for adults with locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC with EGFR exon 20 insertion mutations, as detected by an FDA-approved test, whose disease has progressed on or after platinum-based chemotherapy.

Rybrevant Dosage and Administration

Adult

Confirm presence of EGFR exon 20 insertion mutations in tumor or plasma specimens. Premedicate with antihistamine (oral or IV), antipyretic (oral or IV) prior to all infusions, and glucocorticoid (IV) at initial dose (Week 1 on Days 1 and 2 only), and upon re-initiation after prolonged dose interruptions, then as needed for subsequent infusions. Initiate treatment by IV infusion via peripheral line on Weeks 1 and 2, then may be administered via central line for subsequent weeks. In combination therapy: infuse pemetrexed first, carboplatin second, and amivantamab last; see full labeling. First-line NSCLC: <80kg (Week 1): 350mg on Day 1, then 1050mg on Day 2; (Weeks 2–4): 1400mg once weekly on Day 1; (Weeks 5–6): no dose; (Week 7 onwards): 1750mg every 3 weeks thereafter; ≥80kg (Week 1): 350mg on Day 1, then 1400mg on Day 2; (Weeks 2–4): 1750mg once weekly on Day 1; (Weeks 5–6): no dose; (Week 7 onwards): 2100mg every 3 weeks thereafter. Previously treated NSCLC: <80kg (Week 1): 350mg on Day 1, then 700mg on Day 2; (Weeks 2–5): 1050mg once weekly on Day 1; (Week 6): no dose; (Week 7 onwards): 1050mg every 2 weeks thereafter; ≥80kg (Week 1): 350mg on Day 1, then 1050mg on Day 2; (Weeks 2–5): 1400mg once weekly on Day 1; (Week 6): no dose; (Week 7 onwards): 1400mg every 2 weeks thereafter. Continue until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Infusion rates, dose modifications for adverse reactions: see full labeling.

Rybrevant Warnings/Precautions

Warnings/Precautions

Monitor for infusion-related reactions; interrupt if suspected; reduce infusion rate or permanently discontinue based on severity. Have resuscitative measures available. Monitor for interstitial lung disease (ILD)/pneumonitis; withhold immediately if suspected; permanently discontinue if confirmed. Ocular toxicity (eg, keratitis, uveitis, blurred vision, visual impairment) or dermatologic reactions (eg, rash, dermatitis acneiform, pruritus, dry skin, toxic epidermal necrolysis) may occur; withhold, reduce dose or permanently discontinue based on severity. Promptly refer to a dermatologist if severe rash, atypical appearance or distribution occurs, or lack of improvement within 2 weeks. Advise patients to limit sun exposure during and for 2 months after treatment. Severe renal impairment (CrCl 15–29mL/min), moderate (total bilirubin 1.5–3×ULN) to severe (total bilirubin >3×ULN) hepatic impairment: not studied. Embryo-fetal toxicity. Advise females of reproductive potential to use effective contraception during and for 3 months after the last dose. Pregnancy: exclude status prior to initiation. Nursing mothers: not recommended (during and for 3 months after the last dose).
