Pharmacology
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.
Sevabertinib is a reversible kinase inhibitor of HER2 (ERBB2) that also exhibits activity against EGFR; it inhibits HER2 phosphorylation and downstream signaling in cancer cells harboring HER2 alterations and demonstrates antitumor activity in NSCLC models with activating HER2 exon 20 mutations.
