PALOMA-3: Subcutaneous Amivantamab + Lazertinib for EGFR+ NSCLC

A panelist discusses how targeted therapies such as EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors have become the standard first-line treatment for patients with EGFR-mutated metastatic non–small cell lung cancer, offering improved outcomes compared with traditional chemotherapy.

A panelist discusses how managing resistance mechanisms and toxicity profiles and identifying optimal sequencing strategies remain key challenges in treating EGFR-mutated metastatic non–small cell lung cancer despite advances in targeted therapies.

Panelists discuss how managing adverse events and selecting optimal treatment strategies remain key challenges in front-line EGFR-mutated, non–small cell lung cancer (mNSCLC) therapy, particularly when weighing the efficacy and toxicity profiles of available targeted therapies.

Panelists discuss how PALOMA-3, a phase 3 randomized clinical trial, was designed to evaluate subcutaneous vs intravenous amivantamab, both in combination with lazertinib, in patients with refractory EGFR–mutated non–small cell lung cancer.

Panelists discuss how PALOMA-3’s pharmacokinetic and secondary end point analyses demonstrated the clinical benefit of palbociclib through multiple measures, including progression-free survival, objective response rate, and drug concentration levels that inform optimal dosing strategies.

Panelists discuss how treatment-emergent adverse events were comparable among patients treated with subcutaneous amivantamab-lazertinib vs intravenous administration in the PALOMA-3 trial.

Panelists discuss the safety and efficacy data from the phase 3 PALOMA-3 trial, and how they may lead to future considerations of the subcutaneous use of amivantamab with lazertinib in the front line.

Panelists discuss how findings from the phase 3 PALOMA-3 trial of subcutaneous amivantamab plus lazertinib may impact clinical practice, in particular the improvement of patient outcomes and how their preferences will play a role in treatment decisions.
