Capmatinib successfully overcomes tepotinib‐induced intolerable peripheral edema

Abstract: In May 2020 and February 2021, capmatinib and tepotinib, respectively were approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of metastatic non-small cell lung carcinoma harboring mesenchymal-epithelial transition (MET) exon 14 skipping alterations. Herein, we present a case of intolerable peripheral edema caused by tepotinib, in which MET inhibitor could be continued by switching to capmatinib. Peripheral edema has been identified as one of the most common adverse events in capmatinib and te… Show more

“…MET inhibitors, which act on the HGF/MET signaling pathway, would disrupt this balance and lead to increased fluid leakage. 29 Our study also supported the possibility of this conjecture that type 1b MET TKI (savolitinib), with higher specificity, has a higher incidence of peripheral edema than type 1a MET TKI (crizotinib).…”

“… 8 , 14 , 15 In addition, a case of tepotinib leading to intolerable peripheral edema in the patient was reported; however, MET inhibitor could be continued by switching to capmatinib. 16 In our study, the rate of peripheral edema is relatively low. Therefore, different MET inhibitors may lead to quite different AEs.…”

“…Some reports showed MET pathway inhibitors and certain tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) like rilotumumab and onartuzumab also caused peripheral swelling 13 , 14 . The etiology is unknown but may be due to attenuated hepatocyte growth factor (HGF)/MET signaling in vascular endothelium, disrupting the balance and leading to leakage 15 , 16 . Therefore, early and vigilant monitoring such as weighing is recommended, which can reduce complications from managing late edema, especially in susceptible populations.…”
