Retevmo is a RET inhibitor that is used to treat:

• Advanced or metastatic NSCLC with RET gene fusion in adults
• Advanced or metastatic thyroid cancers with RET mutations in adults and children age 12 years and older
• Advanced or metastatic tumors with RET mutations in adults, when other treatments haven’t worked or aren’t available

Retevmo is a protein in the body that signals cells to grow and divide. Your body makes RET proteins using instructions given by the RET gene. In certain cancers, changes (mutations) in the RET gene lead to abnormal RET proteins. These abnormal proteins cause cancer cells to grow out of control. Retevmo is a type of kinase inhibitor called a RET inhibitor. It blocks the RET protein, so the cancer can’t grow and spread as easily.
