RYBREVANT - MARIPOSA-2 study

Last updated: 05/31/2025
  • RYBREVANT (amivantamab-vmjw) is a low fucose, fully human IgG1-based bispecific antibody with immune cell-directing activity that targets EGFR mutations and MET mutations and amplifications in NSCLC.1
  • LAZCLUZE (lazertinib) is a third-generation EGFR TKI.2

Guidelines

  • NCCN Clinical Practice Guidelines in Oncology (NCCN Guidelines®) for NSCLC recommends amivantamab-vmjw (RYBREVANT) as a subsequent therapy option, if not previously given, in combination with carboplatin and pemetrexed for EGFR Exon 19 deletion or Exon 21 L858R mutation positive advanced, or metastatic nonsquamous disease after progression on osimertinib in patients with multiple systemic lesions who are symptomatic (NCCN Category 1, preferred).3
  • NCCN Category of Evidence of Category 1 is defined as based upon high-level evidence, and there is uniform NCCN consensus (≥85% support of the Panel) that the intervention is appropriate.3
  • NCCN Category of Preference of Preferred intervention is defined as interventions that are based on superior efficacy, safety, and evidence; and, when appropriate, affordability.3
  • Please refer to the NCCN Guidelines® for NSCLC at www.nccn.org for current and complete recommendations for the use of amivantamab-vmjw in NSCLC.3

MARIPOSA-2 study

  • MARIPOSA-2 (NCT04988295) is an ongoing, phase 3, open-label, randomized study designed to assess the efficacy and safety of RYBREVANT-lazertinib-chemotherapy (pemetrexed and carboplatin; n=263) and RYBREVANT-chemotherapy (pemetrexed and carboplatin; n=131) vs chemotherapy alone (pemetrexed and carboplatin; n=263) in patients with EGFR-mutated (Exon19del or Exon 21 L858R) locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC on or after osimertinib monotherapy. The dual primary endpoint is PFS, based on BICR, comparing RYBREVANT-lazertinib-chemotherapy to chemotherapy alone and RYBREVANT-chemotherapy to chemotherapy alone.4,5
    • At a median follow-up of 8.7 months, median PFS by BICR was 8.3 months (95% CI, 6.8-9.1) for RYBREVANT-lazertinib-chemotherapy and 4.2 months (95% CI, 4-4.4) for chemotherapy alone (HR, 0.44; 95% CI, 0.35-0.56; P<0.001); 6.3 months (95% CI, 5.6-8.4) for RYBREVANT-chemotherapy and 4.2 months (95% CI, 4-4.4) for chemotherapy alone (HR, 0.48; 95% CI, 0.36-0.64; P<0.001).5
    • Higher rates of grade ≥3 AEs were observed in the RYBREVANT-lazertinib-chemotherapy (n=263) and RYBREVANT-chemotherapy (n=130) arms vs chemotherapy alone (n=243) arm.5
    • At a median long-term follow-up of 18.1 months, median OS at the second interim analysis was 17.7 months (95% CI, 16-22.4) for RYBREVANT-chemotherapy and 15.3 months (95% CI, 13.7-16.8) for chemotherapy alone (HR, 0.73; 95% CI, 0.54-0.99; P=0.039a).6

  • An analysis evaluated efficacy outcomes based on baseline osimertinib resistance mechanisms in patients from MARIPOSA-2 receiving RYBREVANT-chemotherapy (n=131) vs chemotherapy alone (n=263) for EGFR-mutant advanced NSCLC after disease progression with osimertinib.9
    • Blood samples were collected from all patients to assess the baseline pretreatment mutational status of EGFR, MET, and other oncogenes.
    • ctDNA analysis was conducted at baseline and EOT (within 30 days of disease progression but before the next anticancer therapy) by NGS of paired blood samples using the Guardant 360® CDx (n=264) or PredicineCARE assay (n=77) to identify pathogenic alterations.
      • The analysis included only pathogenic alterations that were common to both panels.

Baseline resistance mutation profile9

  • Baseline ctDNA samples were available for NGS analysis of 341 patients (87%) across the RYBREVANT-chemotherapy (n=120) and chemotherapy alone (n = 221) arms.
  • In the RYBREVANT-chemotherapy vs chemotherapy alone arm, the incidence of MET amplifications (defined as >2.2 copy number alterations) was 10% vs 14%, and the incidence of secondary EGFR resistance mutations was 13% vs 18%.
  • Subsequent analyses included only patients with detectable ctDNA.

  • Median time to sustained deterioration in lung cancer symptoms over time based on NSCLC-SAQ was 11.6 months (95% CI, 10.2-14.9) for RYBREVANT-chemotherapy and 8.5 months (95% CI, 7.2-10.1) for chemotherapy alone (HR, 0.62; 95% CI, 0.43-0.88; P=0.0057b).
    • At 12 months, 46% vs 38% of patients in the RYBREVANT-chemotherapy vs chemotherapy alone arm had no meaningful deterioration in lung cancer symptoms.
  • Median time to sustained deterioration in physical functioning over time based on PROMIS-PF 8c was 11.6 months (95% CI, 10.7-13.4) for RYBREVANT-chemotherapy and 9.4 months (95% CI, 7.5-11.1) for chemotherapy alone (HR, 0.74; 95% CI, 0.52-1.05; P=0.0696).
    • At 12 months, 46% vs 40% of patients in the RYBREVANT-chemotherapy vs chemotherapy alone arm had no meaningful deterioration in physical functioning.

aTime to sustained deterioration was defined as the time from randomization until the date of the first clinically meaningful deterioration (ie, decrease of ≥2.5 points [NSCLC-SAQ] or ≥6.5 points [PROMIS-PF 8c] relative to baseline on the total score) or death that was not subsequently followed by a score above the meaningful deterioration threshold at any later visits.
bKaplan-Meier analyses of PROs are influenced by disease progressions, which are not part of the definition, and patients after progression have fewer PRO data than those prior to progression.
