Tepotinib in Non–Small-Cell Lung Cancer with MET Exon 14 Skipping Mutations
In a study involving patients with non–small-cell lung cancer with a MET exon 14 skipping mutation, the use of tepotinib (a selective MET inhibitor) was associated with a partial response in approximately half the patients. The main adverse event was peripheral edema.
