SUMMARY
- RYBREVANT FASPRO (amivantamab and hyaluronidase-lpuj) for subcutaneous (SC)
administration is a coformulation of amivantamab with recombinant human hyaluronidase PH20 (rHuPH20).1 - The safety and pharmacokinetics (PK) of RYBREVANT FASPRO every 4 weeks (Q4W) is being evaluated in the PALOMA and PALOMA-2 studies.2-5
- PALOMA (NCT04606381) is an ongoing, phase 1, open-label, multicenter, 2-part study evaluating the safety, PK, and efficacy of amivantamab SC as low- and high-concentration formulations with and without rHuPH20 in patients with advanced solid malignancies.2,3
- Cohort 6a of the study is assessing the safety and PK of RYBREVANT FASPRO administered Q4W.6
- Dosing regimen for cohort 6a: RYBREVANT FASPRO was administered weekly (QW) for the first 4 weeks (1600 mg; 2240 mg if body weight ≥80 kg) in cycle 1, followed by Q4W (3200 mg; 4320 mg if body weight ≥80 kg).6
- PK simulation was used to select RYBREVANT FASPRO SC doses for Q4W administration that match the steady-state trough concentration (Ctrough) of the approved RYBREVANT intravenous (IV) every 2 weeks (Q2W) dosing regimen, with the predicted steady-state maximum concentration (Cmax) of the SC Q4W dose not exceeding 125% of the Cmax of the approved IV Q2W dose. Based on PK evaluations, the Q4W dose for RYBREVANT FASPRO was identified as 3520 mg, or 4640 mg if body weight ≥80 kg.6
- Administration time of RYBREVANT FASRPO Q4W was between 7 and 11 minutes.6
- PALOMA-2 (NCT05498428) is an ongoing, phase 2, open-label, international, parallel-cohort study evaluating the efficacy and safety of RYBREVANT FASPRO with chemotherapy and/or LAZCLUZE (lazertinib) in patients with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-mutated locally advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).4,5
- Cohort 5 of the study is assessing the efficacy and safety of RYBREVANT FASPRO administered Q4W in combination with LAZCLUZE.7
- Population PK modeling and simulation were used to select RYBREVANT FASPRO SC doses for Q4W administration that match the steady-state Ctrough of the approved RYBREVANT IV Q2W dosing regimen, with the predicted steady-state Cmax of the SC Q4W dose not exceeding 125% of the Cmax of the approved IV Q2W dose. Based on PK evaluations, the Q4W dose for RYBREVANT FASPRO was identified as 3520 mg, or 4640 mg if body weight ≥80 kg.8
- Dosing regimen for cohort 5: RYBREVANT FASPRO was administered QW for the first 4 weeks (1600 mg; 2240 mg if body weight ≥80 kg) in cycle 1, followed by Q4W (3520 mg; 4640 mg if body weight ≥80 kg).7,8
- Based on PK noninferiority data from the phase 3 PALOMA-3 (NCT05388669) study, IV to SC transition evaluated for Q2W in the PALOMA-2 study, and PK modeling for Q4W, patients treated with RYBREVANT IV may transition to SC administration with RYBREVANT FASPRO.1,9-11
- The identified RYBREVANT FASPRO Q4W dosage being evaluated in PALOMA-2 study is provided below.
