The FDA’s decision on the sNDA of sotorasib and panitumumab in KRAS G12C-mutated chemorefractory metastatic CRC has been delayed
- Comments from Amgen, the sponsor of the sNDA, said the delay was to allow the FDA to review supplemental information that was recently submitted. The new target action date is January 17, 2025.
- The sNDA is supported by data from the phase III CodeBreaK 300 study presented at the 2023 ESMO Congress. At a median follow-up of 7.8 months, the median PFS in patients treated with sotorasib 960 mg plus panitumumab was 5.6 months (HR, 0.49; 95% CI; 0.30-0.80), and the median PFS in patients treated with sotorasib 240 mg plus panitumumab was 3.9 months (HR, 0.58; 95% CI, 0.36-0.93). Comparatively, the median PFS in patients treated with investigator’s choice of trifluridine and tipiracil or regorafenib (Stivarga) was 2.2 months (95% CI, 1.9-3.9.
- Findings presented at the 2024 ASCO Annual Meeting showed that the study was not powered to detect a statistically significant difference in overall survival (OS); however, there was a trend toward OS improvement in patients receiving the 960-mg dose of sotorasib with panitumumab. The median OS was not reached in the sotorasib 960 mg arm, 11.9 months (95% CI, 7.5-not evaluable [NE]) in the sotorasib 240 mg arm, and 10.3 months (range, 7.0-NE) in the investigator’s choice arm. The hazard ratio 0.70 (95% CI, 0.41-1.18) with sotorasib 960 mg plus panitumumab compared with investigator’s choice and 0.83 (95% CI, 0.49-1.39) with sotorasib 240 mg plus panitumumab compared with investigator’s choice.
- In May 2021, the FDA granted accelerated approval to sotorasib for the treatment of patients with locally advanced or metastatic KRAS G12C-mutated non–small cell lung cancer that have received at least 1 prior line of therapy. This was supported by data from the phase II CodeBreaK 100 study (NCT03600883). The FDA’s Oncologic Drug Advisory Committee voted in 10 to 2 in October 2023, that the PFS data from CodeBreaK 200 (NCT04303780) could not be reliably interpreted, as the PFS difference between the sotorasib and docetaxel control arms was small, and there was no difference in overall survival. In December 2023, the FDA issued a complete response letter to the supplemental new drug application of sotorasib, failing to convert the accelerated approval to traditional approval.
