Sotorasib, sold under the brand names Lumakras and Lumykras, is a medication used to treat non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC).[1] Specifically it is used for advanced disease that has a KRAS G12C-mutation and failed other treatments.[1][4] It is taken by mouth.[1]

Common side effects include diarrhea, musculoskeletal pain, nausea, tiredness, liver damage, and cough.[1] Other side effects may include interstitial lung disease.[1] Safety in pregnancy is unclear.[1] It is an inhibitor of the RAS GTPase family, specifically the KRAS p.G12C mutation.[1][6]

Sotorasib was approved for medical use in the United States in 2021 and Europe in 2022.[1][4] In the United Kingdom a month of medication costs the NHS about £6900 as of 2022.[7] This amount in the United States costs about 18,900 USD.[8]

Medical uses

Sotorasib is indicated for the treatment of adults with KRAS G12C-mutated locally advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), as determined by an FDA-approved test, who have received at least one prior systemic therapy.[1][5]

Dosage

The typical dose is 960 mg once per day.[1] A lower dose may be used in people with certain side effects.[4]

Pharmacology

Sotorasib can exist in either of two atropisomeric forms and one is more active than the other.[9] It selectively forms an irreversible covalent bond to the sulfur atom in the cysteine residue that is present in the mutated form of KRAS, but not in the normal form.[9]

History

It is the first approved targeted therapy for tumors with any KRAS mutation, which accounts for approximately 25% of mutations in non-small cell lung cancers.[5] KRAS G12C mutations occur in about 13% of people with non-small cell lung cancers.[5][10]

Sotorasib is being developed by Amgen. Phase I clinical trials were completed in 2020.[11][12][13] In December 2019, it was approved to begin Phase II clinical trials.[14]

Because the G12C KRAS mutation is relatively common in some cancer types, 14% of non-small-cell lung cancer adenocarcinoma patients and 5% of colorectal cancer patients,[9] and sotorasib is the first drug candidate to target this mutation, there have been high expectations for the drug.[9][15][16] The Food and Drug Administration has granted a fast track designation to sotorasib for the treatment of metastatic non-small-cell lung carcinoma with the G12C KRAS mutation.[17]

Researchers evaluated the efficacy of sotorasib in a study of 124 participants with locally advanced or metastatic KRAS G12C-mutated non-small cell lung cancer with disease progression after receiving an immune checkpoint inhibitor and/or platinum-based chemotherapy.[5] The major outcomes measured were objective response rate (proportion of participants whose tumor is destroyed or reduced) and duration of response.[5] The objective response rate was 36% and 58% of those participants had a duration of response of six months or longer.[5]

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) granted the application for sotorasib orphan drug, fast track, priority review, and breakthrough therapy designations.[5] The FDA collaborated with the Australian Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA), the Brazilian Health Regulatory Agency (ANVISA), Health Canada and the United Kingdom Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA).[5] The application reviews are ongoing at the other regulatory agencies.[5]

The FDA granted approval of Lumakras to Amgen Inc.[5]

Society and culture

Economics

At introduction, in the United States, Sotorasib costs US$17,900 per month.[10]

Legal status

In November 2021, the Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP) of the European Medicines Agency (EMA) adopted a positive opinion, recommending the granting of a conditional marketing authorization for the medicinal product Lumykras, intended for the treatment of people with KRAS G12C mutation non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).[18] The applicant for this medicinal product is Amgen Europe B.V.[18] Sotorasib was approved for medical use in the European Union in January 2022.[4]

Names

Sotorasib is the recommended international nonproprietary name (INN).[19]
