How TABRECTA Works

Capmatinib targets the MET receptor, including the mutant variant produced by exon 14 skipping. This mutation results in a protein missing a regulatory domain, which leads to increased downstream signaling and tumor cell growth. By inhibiting MET phosphorylation and downstream signaling proteins, the drug prevents the proliferation and survival of MET-dependent cancer cells. It has demonstrated anti-tumor activity in models with mutations leading to MET exon 14 skipping or MET amplification.
