摘要

Avutometinib and defactinib (AVMAPKI™ FAKZYNJA™ CO-PACK) is a co-packaged rapidly accelerating fibrosarcoma (RAF)/mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase (MEK) inhibitor (avutometinib) and focal adhesion kinase (FAK)/proline-rich tyrosine kinase-2 (Pyk2) inhibitor (defactinib) being developed by Verastem Oncology for the treatment of RAS/MAPK pathway-driven cancers. In May 2025, avutometinib and defactinib was approved in the USA for the treatment of adult patients with KRAS-mutated recurrent low-grade serous ovarian cancer (LGSOC) who have received prior systemic therapy. This article summarizes the milestones in the development of avutometinib and defactinib leading to this first approval for KRAS-mutated recurrent LGSOC.
