TEPMETKO (tepotinib hydrochloride) is an oral tyrosine kinase inhibitor approved by the FDA on February 3, 2021. It is indicated for the treatment of metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with MET exon 14 skipping mutations. The drug works by selectively inhibiting MET receptor signaling, a key driver of cancer progression in this patient subset. TEPMETKO addresses a defined genomic niche within lung cancer treatment, targeting a specific molecular alteration rather than competing across broad oncology categories.
