Symptoms that may occur in people with type 2 diabetes include low blood sugar, upset stomach, heartburn, burping, gas, bloating, nausea, vomiting, stomach pain, loss of appetite, diarrhea, constipation, runny nose or sore throat, stomach flu symptoms, headache, dizziness, and tiredness.

RYBREVANT® (amivantamab-vmjw) was granted accelerated approval by the FDA in May 2021. It is indicated for the treatment of adult patients with locally advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who have EGFR exon 20 insertion mutations. These mutations must be detected by an FDA-approved test and the patients’ disease must have progressed on or after previous treatment.

Multiple studies have shown that dacomitinib may be effective in treating EGFR-positive NSCLC with CNS metastases, with response rates ranging from 87.5% to 92.9% and disease control rates of 100%.

Rybrevant works by inhibiting the binding of ligands to receptors, thereby disrupting the signaling functions of EGFR and MET.

According to the investigator assessment, the median OS was approximately 22.77 months (with a 95% CI ranging from 17.48 to not estimable). The estimated survival rates were 90% (with a 95% CI ranging from 81% to 95%) at 6 months, 74% (with a 95% CI ranging from 63% to 83%) at 12 months, and 41% (with a 95% CI ranging from 21% to 59%) at 24 months.

The initial dose, which includes infusions on Day 1 and Day 2, typically lasts for approximately 4 to 6 hours. From Week 2 onwards, the duration of infusions can be reduced to about 2 to 4 hours.

RYBREVANT® is a distinct treatment option compared to immunotherapy, chemotherapy, and TKIs as it is a targeted antibody.

The reasons behind the limited effectiveness of immunotherapy in EGFR-mutated NSCLC patients remain uncertain. Preliminary studies have indicated that EGFR-mutated NSCLC exhibits reduced levels of PD-L1 expression and a low tumor mutational burden (TMB), resulting in a diminished immune response.

A potential breakthrough drug, EAI-432, has been created by scientists at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute. This drug shows promise in treating non-small cell lung cancers (NSCLC) caused by mutations in the EGFR gene, specifically the L858R mutation. This mutation is found in approximately one-third of NSCLC patients.

Patients with tumors containing EGFR exon19 del/L858R and ALK-rearrangement mutations have consistently shown no improvement in response to immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy compared to docetaxel in phase III trials (3-5). This finding has been further supported by retrospective studies and meta-analyses (6,7).

Patients who experienced crizotinib failure had a median overall survival of 31.6 months.

Your oncology care team may monitor for liver toxicity caused by this medication using blood tests called liver function tests.

Rybrevant is a biologic drug called a bispecific antibody that is typically administered once every two weeks. It is approved for use in patients with EGFR-positive NSCLC who have genetic mutations known as exon 20 insertions.

Patients with EGFR ex20ins mutations have a worse prognosis compared to those with other EGFR-TKI-sensitive mutations. In fact, patients with EGFRm ex20ins NSCLC have a median real-world overall survival (rwOS) of just 16.2 months.

Lung cancers with exon 20 insertions have a median survival of 16.5 months, which is shorter than the median survival of 33.0 months in those with common EGFR mutations (A, p=0.06). However, the median survival of lung cancers with exon 20 insertions is similar to the median survival of 20.0 months in EGFR wild-type cancers (B, p=0.60).

RYBREVANT® has the potential to cause infusion-related reactions (IRR), which can be identified by various signs and symptoms such as dyspnea, flushing, fever, chills, nausea, chest discomfort, hypotension, and vomiting. According to data from the safety population, IRR was observed in 66% of patients who received treatment with RYBREVANT®.

Janssen Biotech is developing Amivantamab (amivantamab-vmjw; Rybrevant®), a bispecific monoclonal antibody that targets both epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and mesenchymal epithelial transition factor (MET), for the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).

RYBREVANT, also known as amivantamab-vmjw, is a medication prescribed for the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) in adults. It is specifically used for NSCLC that has either metastasized to other areas of the body or cannot be surgically removed.

Amivantamab, marketed as Rybrevant, is a bispecific monoclonal antibody indicated for the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer. It functions as a bispecific antibody targeting both the epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor and the mesenchymal-epithelial transition (MET) receptor.

Janssen Biotech, Inc. is located in Horsham, PA.

Results: Although both agents showed similar effectiveness in terms of time-to-event outcomes, amivantamab had a significantly higher objective response rate. Additionally, amivantamab had significantly fewer any-grade treatment-related adverse events compared to mobocertinib, with only two reported for mobocertinib and 15 reported for amivantamab.

On May 21, 2021, the FDA granted accelerated approval to amivantamab-vmjw (Rybrevant; Janssen/Johnson & Johnson), a bispecific antibody that targets mutations in the EGFR and MET pathways.
