摘要

Targeted therapies have revolutionized treatment of non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC); however, epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) exon20ins mutations are resistant to tyrosine kinase inhibitors. Amivantamab utilizes multiple mechanisms of action to bypass the altered binding site conformation and recruits immune cells for anti-cancer activity. Amivantamab is approved in the frontline setting of EGFR exon20ins-mutated NSCLC in combination with carboplatin plus pemetrexed. Single-agent amivantamab is approved in second line or later for EGFR exon20ins. Furthermore, amivantamab with lazertinib for first line as well as amivantamab in combination with carboplatin and pemetrexed for second line after osimertinib have both been approved in the treatment of NSCLC harboring EGFR-sensitizing mutations. Now with multiple indications, we must learn how to manage the unique side effects of amivantamab to maximize treatment benefit for the patients. Side effects of amivantamab can be associated with inhibition of the EGFR and/or mesenchymal epithelial transcription factor (MET) signaling pathways. This work reviews the mechanism of action, pharmacology, clinical trial data, and covers management of toxicities. This guide is designed as a practical reference tool for clinicians, pharmacists, and basic science researchers.
