Summary of Clinical Use Click here for help
Capmatinib was advanced to clinical trial for various types of cancer either alone or in combination with other antineoplastics. Targeted indications include recurrent gliobastoma, advanced hepatocellular carcinoma, advanced non-small cell lung cancer, papillary renal cell cancer and advanced BRAF melanoma. For example capmatinib + nivolumab (an approved anti-PD-1 mAb) is being evaluated in study NCT02323126 (Phase 2 for previously treated NSCLC). NCT02795429 (Phase 1/2 in advanced HCC) is evaluating capmatinib + spartalizumab (PDR001, an investigational anti-PD-1 mAb).

In March 2019, the FDA granted capmatinib orphan drug designation for the treament of MET-mutated advanced NSCLC [1]. Full authorisaton, delivered through the FDA's accelerated approval process, was granted in May 2020, with capmatinib indicated for metastatic NSCLC with a mutation that leads to mesenchymal-epithelial transition (MET) exon 14 skipping. The FoundationOne CDx assay was approved at the same time as a companion diagnostic that must be used to confirm the presence of mutation. EMA authorisation as a NSCLC treatment followed in 2022.
