Serpatinib (Retevmo) is a highly selective and potent kinase inhibitor that works by targeting the mutation or fusion form of the RET (RearrangedDuringTransfection) gene.

1. Drug name

1. Generic name: Selpercatinib

2. Trade name: Retevmo™

2. Indications

1. Adult metastatic RET fusion-positive non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).

2. Patients aged 12 years and above with advanced or metastatic RET-mutated medullary thyroid cancer (MTC) requiring systemic treatment.

3. Patients aged 12 years and above with advanced or metastatic RET fusion-positive thyroid cancer that require systemic treatment and are refractory to radioactive iodine.

3. Specifications and properties

Capsule dosage form: 40mg).

IV. Main ingredient

1. Active ingredient: Serpatinib.

2. Excipients: Microcrystalline cellulose, colloidal silica (capsule shell contains gelatin, titanium dioxide, etc.).

5. Usage and dosage

1. Conventional dosage of :

≥50kg: 160mg orally, 2 times a day (12 hours apart); <50kg: 120mg orally, 2 times a day.

2. How to take :

Swallow the whole tablet, do not chew or crush it.

3. Treatment of missed doses :

If it is >6 hours before the next dose, you can take it again, otherwise skip it.

4. Vomiting treatment :

There is no need to take another dose after vomiting. Take the next dose according to the original plan.

6. Dose adjustment

1. Hepatotoxicity : Suspend the administration when AST/ALT rises, and reduce the dose by 2 levels after recovery (such as 160mg → 120mg).

2. Hypertension : Suspend medication for grade 3 hypertension and reduce the dose after control; permanently discontinue medication for grade 4 hypertension.

3. QT prolongation : For grade 3, suspend until recovery, reduce dose; for grade 4, permanently discontinue the drug.

4. Severe liver damage : Reduce the dose by half (such as 160mg → 80mg).

7. Medication precautions

1. Combination restrictions :

Avoid combined use with strong/moderate CYP3A inhibitors (such as itraconazole) or inducers (such as rifampicin).

Antacids should be taken 2 hours apart.

2. Monitoring requirements :

Regularly detect liver function, blood pressure, QT interval, and electrolytes before medication and during treatment.

8. Medication for special groups

1. Pregnant women : is embryotoxic and requires contraception until 1 week after stopping the drug.

2. Lactation : Avoid breastfeeding during treatment and within 1 week of stopping the drug.

3. Children : It is safe and effective for ≥12 years old, but there is insufficient data for <12 years old.

4. Liver damage : In severe cases, dose reduction is required.

9. Adverse reactions

Common (≥25%) include:

1. Laboratory abnormalities: Elevated AST/ALT, hyperglycemia, low albumin, and low calcium.

2. Clinical symptoms: Dry mouth, diarrhea, high blood pressure, fatigue, rash, edema.

10. Contraindications

There are no clear contraindications.

11. Drug interactions

1. CYP3A affects : Strong inhibitors increase the efficacy (need to reduce the dosage), while strong inducers decrease the efficacy (avoid combined use).

2. CYP2C8/3A substrate : may increase its plasma concentration (such as repaglinide).

12. Storage method

Stored at room temperature (20-25℃), short-term fluctuation of 15-30℃ is allowed.
