SUMMARY
- RYBREVANT FASPRO (amivantamab and hyaluronidase-lpuj) for subcutaneous (SC) administration is a coformulation of amivantamab with recombinant human hyaluronidase PH20 (rHuPH20).1
- Adult patients currently receiving RYBREVANT (amivantamab-vmjw) intravenous (IV) at an every 2 week (Q2W) dosing regimen may switch to RYBREVANT FASPRO SC at Q2W dosing regimen at their next scheduled dose on or after Week 5.2
- Adult patients currently receiving RYBREVANT IV at an every 3 week (Q3W) dosing regimen may switch to RYBREVANT FASPRO SC at Q3W dosing regimen at their next scheduled dose on or after Week 4.2
- The feasibility of switching from RYBREVANT IV to RYBREVANT FASPRO SC was evaluated in the PALOMA-2 study.3,4
- 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).3,4
- Patients must not have had evidence of progressive disease during treatment with RYBREVANT or at the time of study enrollment.5
- No washout was required between IV and SC administration.5
- Initial safety and pharmacokinetics (PK) results were reported for patients switching from RYBREVANT IV to RYBREVANT FASPRO SC (cohort 4). Patients in cohort 4 previously received RYBREVANT IV for ≥8 weeks without dose reduction or evidence of progressive disease, as part of standard of care, an expanded access program, or rollover from a long-term extension study.6
- At a median follow-up of 9.7 months, the safety profile of RYBREVANT FASPRO SC after switching from RYBREVANT IV was consistent with previous reports of RYBREVANT FASPRO SC monotherapy, with no new safety signals; no administration-related reactions (ARRs) were reported.6
- The most common adverse events (AEs) associated with EGFR and mesenchymal-epithelial transition (MET) inhibition were paronychia (44%) and hypoalbuminemia (40%), respectively.6
- The simulated PK exposures of amivantamab IV were noninferior to amivantamab SC for the Q2W dose regimen, including dose reductions, meeting the predefined noninferiority criteria for efficacy and safety.6
- The recommended dosage of RYBREVANT FASPRO was based on the estimated bioavailability of amivantamab SC from the PALOMA study, supported by compartmental PK modeling. The SC dosage regimens ensure similar exposures to the IV dosages, with no additional safety signals anticipated.5 Please refer to the Clinical Pharmacology section (Section 12.3 Pharmacokinetics) of the Prescribing Information for RYBREVANT FASPRO for complete information.2
IV to SC Switch
- Based on PK noninferiority from PK simulations comparing IV to SC systemic exposures from the phase 3 PALOMA-3 (NCT05388669) study, and IV to SC switch evaluated in PALOMA-2, patients treated with RYBREVANT IV may switch to SC administration with RYBREVANT FASPRO.1,6,7
- Adult patients currently receiving RYBREVANT IV at Q2W dosing regimen may switch to RYBREVANT FASPRO SC at Q2W dosing regimen at their next scheduled dose on or after Week 5.2
- Adult patients currently receiving RYBREVANT IV at Q3W dosing regimen may switch to RYBREVANT FASPRO SC at Q3W dosing regimen at their next scheduled dose on or after Week 4.2
- The tables below outline the recommended IV and SC starting dosages, as well as the corresponding dose reductions, which are provided in the current Prescribing Information for RYBREVANT IV and RYBREVANT FASPRO SC.2,8
