1%). Three percent of patients discontinued Rybrevant due to adverse reactions. 5%). Tabulated list of adverse reactions Table 7 summarises the adverse drug reactions that occurred in patients receiving amivantamab as monotherapy. 10 The data reflects exposure to amivantamab in 380 patients with locally advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer after failure of platinum-based chemotherapy.
Patients received amivantamab 1050 mg (for patients < 80 kg) or 1400 mg (for patients ≥ 80 kg). 7 months). Adverse reactions observed during clinical studies are listed below by frequency category. Frequency categories are defined as follows: very common (≥ 1/10); common (≥ 1/100 to < 1/10); uncommon (≥ 1/1000 to < 1/100); rare (≥ 1/10000 to < 1/1000); very rare (< 1/10000); and not known (frequency cannot be estimated from the available data).
Within each frequency grouping, adverse reactions are presented in the order of decreasing seriousness. 8† Pyrexia 11 0 Injury, poisoning and procedural complications Infusion related reaction Very common 67 2 * Grouped terms † Grade 3 events only Summary of the safety profile In the dataset of amivantamab in combination with carboplatin and pemetrexed (N=301), the most frequent adverse reactions in all grades were rash (83%), neutropenia (57%), nail toxicity (53%), infusion related reactions (51%), fatigue (43%), stomatitis (39%), nausea (43%), thrombocytopenia (40%), constipation (40%), oedema (40%), decreased appetite (33%), hypoalbuminaemia (32%), alanine aminotransferase increased (26%), aspartate aminotransferase increased (23%), vomiting (22%), and hypokalaemia (20%).
Traceability In order to improve the traceability of biological medicinal products, the name and the batch number of the administered product should be clearly recorded. 8). Prior to initial infusion (Week 1), antihistamines, antipyretics, and glucocorticoids should be administered to reduce the risk of IRRs.
For subsequent doses, antihistamines and antipyretics should be administered. The initial infusion should be administered in split doses on Week 1, Day 1 and 2. Patients should be treated in a setting with appropriate medical support to treat IRRs.

Patients with VTE events should be treated with anticoagulation as clinically indicated. For VTE events associated with clinical instability treatment should be withheld until the patient is clinically stable. Thereafter, both drugs can be resumed at the same dose.
In the event of recurrence despite appropriate anticoagulation, Rybrevant should be discontinued. 2). 8). Patients should be instructed to limit sun exposure during and for 2 months after Rybrevant therapy. Protective clothing and use of broad-spectrum UVA/UVB sunscreen are advisable.

A prophylactic approach to rash prevention is recommended. , clindamycin 1%) for the next 9 months of treatment. Non-comedogenic skin moisturiser (ceramide-based or other formulations that provide long-lasting skin hydration and exclude drying agents are preferred) on the face and whole body (except scalp) and chlorhexidine solution to wash hands and feet is recommended beginning on Day 1 and continued for the duration of treatment.
Prescriptions for topical and/or oral antibiotics and topical corticosteroids are recommended to be available at the time of initial dosing to minimise any delay in reactive management should rash develop despite prophylactic treatment.
If skin reactions develop, supportive care, topical corticosteroids and topical and/or oral antibiotics should be administered. For Grade 3 or poorly-tolerated Grade 2 events, systemic antibiotics and oral steroids should also be administered.
