Mutations in KRAS G12C are among the more common oncogenic driver mutations in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). In December 2022, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) granted accelerated approval to adagrasib, a small molecule covalent inhibitor of KRAS G12C, for the treatment of patients with locally advanced or metastatic KRAS G12C mutant NSCLC who received at least one prior systemic therapy based on promising results from phase 1 and 2 trials wherein adagrasib demonstrated a median PFS of 6.5 months.
