CHALLENGE HER2-MUTATED NSCLC WITH HYRNUO

A TKI for patients with locally advanced or metastatic non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) whose tumors have HER2* TKD-activating mutations, and who have received prior systemic therapy1

This indication is approved under accelerated approval based on objective response rate (ORR) and duration of response (DoR). Continued approval for this indication may be contingent upon verification and description of clinical benefit in a confirmatory trial.


*HER2 is sometimes referred to as ERBB2 (erb-b2 receptor tyrosine kinase 2).

ERBB2 = erythroblastic oncogene B; HER2 = human epidermal growth factor 2; TKD = tyrosine kinase domain; TKI = tyrosine kinase inhibitor.

HYRNUO is a kinase inhibitor indicated for the treatment of adult patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) whose tumors have HER2 (ERBB2) tyrosine kinase domain (TKD) activating mutations, as detected by an FDA-approved test, and who have received a prior systemic therapy.

This indication is approved under accelerated approval based on objective response rate (ORR) and duration of response (DoR). Continued approval for this indication may be contingent upon verification and description of clinical benefit in a confirmatory trial.

      #Includes diarrhea and enterocolitis.

      RECOMMENDATIONS FOR DIARRHEA MANAGEMENT1:

      At first sign of diarrhea or increased bowel movement frequency:

      • Advise patients to start an antidiarrheal treatment such as loperamide
      • Instruct patients to increase fluid and electrolyte intake

      Based on the severity of diarrhea, interrupt, reduce the dose, or permanently discontinue HYRNUO dosage

      • For intolerable Grade 2 or Grade 3 diarrhea:
        • Interrupt HYRNUO until recovery to Grade ≤1
        • Resume HYRNUO at the same dose or the next lower dose
        • For recurrence, resume HYRNUO at the next lower dose
      • For Grade 4 diarrhea, permanently discontinue HYRNUO

      RECOMMENDED DOSING

      Recommended dosing instructions for HYRNUO

      FIXED ORAL DOSING WITH HYRNUO1

      • No weight-based dosing is required
      • The recommended dose of HYRNUO is 20 mg (two 10 mg tablets) taken orally twice daily with food, for a total daily dose of 40 mg, until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity
        • Swallow tablets whole. Do not cut, crush, or chew tablets
      • Missed dose: Patients must take the missed dose as soon as they remember prior to the next scheduled dose
        • Do not take 2 doses at the same time to make up for the missed dose
      • Vomited dose: If a dose is vomited, do not take an additional dose. Resume dosing at the next scheduled time

      Dose modification options enable treatment adjustments when needed, and can help maintain uninterrupted access to HYRNUO1

      • First recommended dose reduction: 10 mg twice daily
      • Second recommended dose reduction: 10 mg once daily
      • Permanently discontinue HYRNUO in patients who are unable to tolerate 10 mg once daily
