Mirati’s lung cancer treatment gains EMA CHMP’s positive opinion

Mirati Therapeutics has obtained a positive opinion from the Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP) of the European Medicine Agency for Krazati (adagrasib) to treat KRASᴳ¹²ᶜ-mutated advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).

Krazati is indicated for usage as a targeted therapy option in patients with a minimum of one previous systemic therapy whose disease advanced following treatment.

An oral small-molecule KRASᴳ¹²ᶜ inhibitor, Krazati penetrates the central nervous system.

It recently received accelerated approval (Subpart H) from the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

In early November 2023, Krazati received conditional marketing authorisation from the UK Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (MHRA).

This therapy is currently being analysed as a single agent and with other anti-cancer treatments for advanced KRASᴳ¹²ᶜ-mutated solid tumours, including NSCLC, pancreatic and colorectal cancers.
