RESUMEN
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate clinical data regarding the use of amivantamab and mobocertinib for epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) exon 20 insertion mutation non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and assess their potential impact on the care of patients. DATA SOURCES: A comprehensive literature search of PubMed and Clinicaltrials.gov was conducted using the terms amivantamab, Rybrevant, JNJ-61186372, mobocertinib, Exkivity, TAK-788. STUDY SELECTION AND DATA EXTRACTION: Relevant English-language clinical trials were evaluated. DATA SYNTHESIS: Amivantamab and mobocertinib were Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved based on phases 1 and 2 studies. Amivantamab demonstrated an overall response rate (ORR) of 40% and median progression-free survival (PFS) of 8.3 months. Patients commonly experienced rash (86%), paronychia (45%), and stomatitis (21%). Mobocertinib demonstrated an ORR of 28% and median PFS of 7.3 months in phase 1/2 study. Patients frequently experienced diarrhea (91%), rash (45%), and paronychia (38%). Cardiac monitoring is recommended with mobocertinib due to risk of QTc prolongation and cardiac failure. RELEVANCE TO PATIENT CARE: For NSCLC patients who possess an EGFR exon 20 insertion mutation, amivantamab and mobocertinib are indicated as second-line therapy. Ongoing studies are evaluating these therapies as first-line monotherapy and as part of combination regimens in multiple cancer types. Dosage forms, drug interactions, and patient comorbidities should be considered when deciding which of the 2 agents may be most appropriate. CONCLUSION: Amivantamab and mobocertinib target an uncommon NSCLC mutation that has historically marked a poor prognosis because of innate resistance to previously approved EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors. Promising results from early phase trials supported accelerated FDA approval.
