Overview

Capmatinib is a selective, orally available small molecule kinase inhibitor that targets the mesenchymal epithelial transition (MET) receptor tyrosine kinase, also known as hepatocyte growth factor receptor (HGFR). It is primarily indicated for the treatment of adult patients with metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) whose tumors harbor mutations leading to MET exon 14 skipping. These mutations result in increased MET signaling and drive tumor growth. Capmatinib inhibits both wild-type and mutant forms of c-Met by blocking its phosphorylation, thereby preventing downstream signaling involved in cancer cell proliferation and survival. The drug was developed through a collaboration between Incyte and Novartis, with Novartis holding exclusive global development and marketing rights[1][3][4][5][6][8].
