Indication & Patient Population

  • Adult patients with KRAS G12C-mutated locally advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC)
  • Patients who have received at least one prior systemic therapy

Diagnostic Testing & Patient Selection

  • Mutation status must be determined by an FDA-approved test
  • Test tumor or plasma specimens for KRAS G12C mutation; if no mutation is detected in a plasma specimen, test tumor tissue
  • Do not use in patients who have previously received another KRAS G12C inhibitor (e.g., sotorasib)

Dosing & Administration

  • Recommended dosage: 600 mg (3 x 200 mg tablets) orally twice daily
  • Swallow tablets whole with or without food; take on an empty stomach until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity
  • No clinically significant pharmacokinetic differences in patients with creatinine clearance 15-90 mL/min or mild to severe hepatic impairment

Monitoring & Laboratory Requirements

  • Monitor liver function laboratory tests prior to starting therapy (baseline total bilirubin ≤1.5 times ULN, or ≤3 times ULN if associated with liver metastases or Gilbert’s disease; AST and ALT ≤3 times ULN, or ≤5 times ULN if associated with liver metastases)
  • Monitor EKG and electrolytes prior to starting therapy (exclude patients with baseline QTc >480 milliseconds or family history of long QT syndrome)
  • Monitor for gastrointestinal toxicity, hepatotoxicity, interstitial lung disease/pneumonitis, and QTc interval prolongation

Contraindications & Drug Interactions

  • Avoid concomitant use with strong CYP3A4 inducers or inhibitors
  • Avoid concomitant use with sensitive CYP3A4, CYP2C9, CYP2D6, or P-gp substrates due to risk of serious adverse reactions from minimal concentration changes
  • Avoid concomitant use with drugs that prolong QT interval
  • Avoid in patients with congenital long QT syndrome or concurrent QTc prolongation

Special Populations

  • Pregnancy: Adverse embryo-fetal events observed in animal reproduction studies; use with caution
  • Breastfeeding: Not recommended during treatment and for 1 week after the last adagrasib dose due to potential for serious adverse reactions in the breastfed infant

Place in Therapy / Line of Treatment

  • Reserved for second-line and beyond settings following progression on or after first-line therapy (immunotherapy alone or with platinum-based chemotherapy)
  • Indication is approved under accelerated approval based on objective response rate and duration of response; continued approval contingent upon verification of clinical benefit in confirmatory trial(s)
