Pharmacology
Adagrasib is an irreversible KRAS G12C inhibitor that covalently binds to the mutant cysteine residue, locking KRAS G12C in its inactive GDP-bound state and preventing downstream signaling without affecting wild-type KRAS.
Osimertinib is a kinase inhibitor that irreversibly binds to mutant EGFR forms (T790M, L858R, and exon 19 deletions) at approximately 9-fold lower concentrations than wild-type EGFR, inhibiting tumor cell proliferation in EGFR mutation-positive NSCLC; it also inhibits HER2, HER3, HER4, ACK1, and BLK at clinically relevant concentrations.
