Interstitial lung disease associated with capmatinib therapy in a patient with non-small cell lung cancer harboring a skipping mutation of MET exon 14.


ABSTRACT: Capmatinib is a MET tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) that has recently been approved for the treatment of advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) positive for skipping mutations of MET exon 14 (METex14). Drug-induced interstitial lung disease (ILD) is a relatively rare, but potentially serious, side effect of TKIs administered for lung cancer treatment. Here we report a case of capmatinib-induced ILD in a patient with NSCLC harboring a METex14 skipping mutation. Capmatinib should be immediately discontinued if ILD is suspected, and treatment with corticosteroid should be considered.
