What is Rybrevant?
From the FDA label:Amivantamab-vmjw is a low-fucose human immunoglobulin G1-based bispecific antibody directed against the EGF and MET receptors, produced by mammalian cell line (Chinese Hamster Ovary [CHO]) using recombinant DNA technology that has a molecular weight of approximately 148 kDa. RYBREVANT ® (amivantamab-vmjw) injection for intravenous infusion is a sterile, preservative-free, colorless to pale yellow solution in single-dose vials. The pH is 5.7. Each RYBREVANT vial contains 350 mg (50 mg/mL) amivantamab-vmjw, EDTA disodium salt dihydrate (0.14 mg), L-histidine (2.3 mg), L-histidine hydrochloride monohydrate (8.6 mg), L-methionine (7 mg), polysorbate 80 (4.2 mg), sucrose (595 mg), and water for injection, USP.
How to use
The recommended dosage of RYBREVANT is based on baseline body weight and administered as an intravenous infusion after dilution.

Important safety information
Infusion-Related Reactions (IRR) : Interrupt infusion at the first sign of IRRs. Reduce the infusion rate or permanently discontinue RYBREVANT based on severity. ( 2.5 , 2.8 , 5.1 ) Interstitial Lung Disease (ILD)/Pneumonitis : Monitor for new or worsening symptoms indicative of ILD. Immediately withhold RYBREVANT in patients with suspected ILD/pneumonitis and permanently discontinue if ILD/pneumonitis is confirmed. ( 2.8 , 5.2 ) Venous Thromboembolic (VTE) Events with Concomitant Use with Lazertinib: Prophylactic anticoagulation is recommended for the first four months of treatment.

Permanently discontinue RYBREVANT and continue lazertinib for recurrent VTE despite therapeutic anticoagulation. ( 2.7 , 2.8 , 5.3 ) Dermatologic Adverse Reactions : Can cause severe rash including toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN) and acneiform dermatitis. At treatment initiation, prophylactic and concomitant medications are recommended. Withhold, reduce the dose, or permanently discontinue RYBREVANT based on severity.

The median time to IRR onset is approximately 1 hour. RYBREVANT with Lazertinib RYBREVANT in combination with lazertinib can cause infusion-related reactions. In MARIPOSA, [see Adverse Reactions (6.1) ] , IRRs occurred in 63% of patients treated with RYBREVANT in combination with lazertinib, including Grade 3 in 5% and Grade 4 in 1% of patients. The incidence of infusion modifications due to IRR was 54%, and IRRs leading to dose reduction of RYBREVANT occurred in 0.7% of patients. Infusion-related reactions leading to permanent discontinuation of RYBREVANT occurred in 4.5% of patients receiving RYBREVANT in combination with lazertinib. RYBREVANT with Carboplatin and Pemetrexed Based on the pooled safety population [see Adverse Reactions (6.1) ] , IRR occurred in 50% of patients treated with RYBREVANT in combination with carboplatin and pemetrexed, including Grade 3 (3.2%) adverse reactions. The incidence of infusion modifications due to IRR was 46%, and 2.8% of patients permanently discontinued RYBREVANT due to IRR. RYBREVANT as a Single Agent In CHRYSALIS, [see Adverse Reactions (6.1) ], IRR occurred in 66% of patients treated with RYBREVANT as a single agent. Among patients receiving treatment on Week 1 Day 1, 65% experienced an IRR, while the incidence of IRR was 3.4% with the Day 2 infusion, 0.4% with the Week 2 infusion, and cumulatively 1.1% with subsequent infusions. Of the reported IRRs, 97% were Grade 1–2, 2.2% were Grade 3, and 0.4% were Grade 4. The median time to onset was 1 hour (range 0.1 to 18 hours) after start of infusion. The incidence of infusion modifications due to IRR was 62%, and 1.3% of patients permanently discontinued RYBREVANT due to IRR. Premedicate with antihistamines, antipyretics, and glucocorticoids and infuse RYBREVANT as recommended [see Dosage and Administration (2.5) ] . Administer RYBREVANT via a peripheral line on Week 1 and Week 2 to reduce the risk of infusion-related reactions [see Dosage and Administration (2.10) ] . Monitor patients for signs and symptoms of infusion reactions during RYBREVANT infusion in a setting where cardiopulmonary resuscitation medication and equipment are available. Interrupt infusion if IRR is suspected. Reduce the infusion rate or permanently discontinue RYBREVANT based on severity [see Dosage and Administration (2.8) ]. If an anaphylactic reaction occurs, permanently discontinue RYBREVANT. 5.2 Interstitial Lung Disease/Pneumonitis RYBREVANT can cause severe and fatal interstitial lung disease (ILD)/pneumonitis. RYBREVANT with Lazertinib In MARIPOSA [see Adverse Reactions (6.1) ] , ILD/pneumonitis occurred in 3.1% of patients treated with RYBREVANT in combination with lazertinib, including Grade 3 in 1% and Grade 4 in 0.2% of patients. There was one fatal case of ILD/pneumonitis and 2.9% of patients permanently discontinued RYBREVANT and lazertinib due to ILD/pneumonitis [see Adverse Reactions (6.1) ]. RYBREVANT with Carboplatin and Pemetrexed Based on the pooled safety population [see Adverse Reactions (6.1) ], ILD/pneumonitis occurred in 2.1% treated with RYBREVANT in combination with carboplatin and pemetrexed with 1.8% of patients experiencing Grade 3 ILD/pneumonitis. 2.1% discontinued RYBREVANT due to ILD/pneumonitis. RYBREVANT as a Single Agent In CHRYSALIS, [see Adverse Reactions (6.1) ] , ILD/pneumonitis occurred in 3.3% of patients treated with RYBREVANT as a single agent, with 0.7% of patients experiencing Grade 3 ILD/pneumonitis. Three patients (1%) permanently discontinued RYBREVANT due to ILD/pneumonitis. Monitor patients for new or worsening symptoms indicative of ILD/pneumonitis (e.g., dyspnea, cough, fever). Immediately withhold RYBREVANT in patients with suspected ILD/pneumonitis and permanently discontinue if ILD/pneumonitis is confirmed [see Dosage and Administration (2.8) ] . 5.3 Venous Thromboembolic (VTE) Events with Concomitant Use of RYBREVANT and Lazertinib RYBREVANT in combination with lazertinib can cause serious and fatal venous thromboembolic (VTE) events, including deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism. The majority of these events occurred during the first four months of treatment [see Adverse Reactions (6.1) ] . In MARIPOSA [see Adverse Reactions (6.1) ], VTEs occurred in 36% of patients receiving RYBREVANT in combination with lazertinib, including Grade 3 in 10% and Grade 4 in 0.5% of patients. On-study VTEs occurred in 1.2% of patients (n=5) while receiving anticoagulation therapy. There were two fatal cases of VTE (0.5%), 9% of patients had VTE leading to dose interruptions of RYBREVANT, 1% of patients had VTE leading to dose reductions of RYBREVANT, and 3.1% of patients had VTE leading to permanent discontinuation of RYBREVANT. The median time to onset of VTEs was 84 days (range: 6 to 777). Administer prophylactic anticoagulation for the first four months of treatment [see Dosage and Administration (2.7) ]. The use of Vitamin K antagonists is not recommended. Monitor for signs and symptoms of VTE events and treat as medically appropriate.

Once anticoagulant treatment has been initiated, resume RYBREVANT and lazertinib at the same dose level at the discretion of the healthcare provider . In the event of VTE recurrence despite therapeutic anticoagulation, permanently discontinue RYBREVANT. Treatment can continue with lazertinib at the same dose level at the discretion of the healthcare provider [see Dosage and Administration (2.8) ]. Refer to the lazertinib prescribing information for recommended lazertinib dosage modification. 5.4 Dermatologic Adverse Reactions RYBREVANT can cause severe rash including toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN), dermatitis acneiform, pruritus, and dry skin.
