Mobocertinib: Mechanism of action, clinical, and translational science.

ABSTRACT: Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) exon 20 insertion (ex20ins) mutations represent ~6%-12% of all EGFR-mutated non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cases. First-, second-, and third-generation tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) have limited clinical activity against EGFR ex20ins mutations. Mobocertinib is a first-in-class oral EGFR TKI that selectively targets in-frame EGFR ex20ins mutations in NSCLC; accelerated approval in the United States was granted for the treatment of adult patients with locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC with EGFR ex20ins mutations whose disease has progressed on or after platinum-based chemotherapy. Accelerated approval was based on the results from the three-part, open-label, multicenter, pivotal phase I/II nonrandomized clinical trial (NCT02716116) that enro
