NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD. is committed to the safe and effective use of pharmaceuticals. For targeted cancer therapies like Capmatinib Hydrochloride, a thorough understanding of the safety profile and potential adverse effects is crucial for patient management and successful treatment outcomes.

Capmatinib Hydrochloride, while highly effective in treating NSCLC with MET exon 14 skipping mutations, can also lead to side effects. Like many potent cancer medications, it requires careful monitoring and management. The GEOMETRY mono-1 trial and subsequent clinical experience have provided valuable insights into its safety profile.

Common Adverse Effects:

  • Peripheral edema (swelling), particularly in the extremities, is frequently reported.
  • Gastrointestinal issues such as nausea, vomiting, and decreased appetite are also common.
  • Fatigue and dyspnea (shortness of breath) can impact patients' daily lives.

Serious Adverse Effects:

  • Pulmonary Toxicity: A significant concern is the potential for interstitial lung disease or pneumonitis, which can be severe and, in rare cases, fatal. Patients experiencing new or worsening cough, fever, or shortness of breath must seek immediate medical attention.
  • Hepatic Toxicity: Liver function abnormalities, including elevated liver enzymes and bilirubin, have been observed. Regular monitoring of liver function tests is essential throughout treatment.
  • Pancreatic Toxicity: Elevations in amylase and lipase levels have been noted, indicating potential pancreatic issues.
  • Photosensitivity: Patients may become more sensitive to sunlight and should take precautions such as using sunscreen and wearing protective clothing.
  • Embryo-fetal Toxicity: Capmatinib Hydrochloride can cause harm to a developing fetus, necessitating effective contraception for women of reproductive potential and their male partners.

Precautions and Management:

Healthcare providers must closely monitor patients for these adverse events. Dose modifications, temporary interruption, or permanent discontinuation of Capmatinib Hydrochloride may be necessary depending on the severity of the reaction. Open communication between patients and their medical team is vital to ensure timely identification and management of any side effects.
