    On August 19, 2021, Janssen, a subsidiary of Johnson & Johnson, announced the preliminary data of the Phase 1 clinical trial CHRYSALIS
    .


    The trial aims to evaluate its EGFR/MET bispecific antibody therapy Rybrevant (amivantamab-vmjw) for the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with mutations in exon 14 of the mesenchymal-epithelial transition (MET) gene (METex14) ) Patients


    Rybrevant is a humanized EGFR/MET bispecific antibody
    .


    It has multiple anti-cancer mechanisms.


    In China, this bispecific antibody therapy has been included as a breakthrough treatment product by the National Food and Drug Administration (NMPA) of China.
    A number of clinical trials are currently underway in China, including a combination with the third-generation EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor lazertinib Used as the first-line treatment for locally advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer with EGFR mutations
    .

    NSCLC accounts for 80%-85% of all lung cancers, and about 3% of patients have METex14 mutations
    .


    This mutation causes excessive activation of the MET receptor and promotes the growth of corresponding cancer cells


    In the CHRYSALIS trial, 19 NSCLC patients with METex14 mutations received Rybrevant treatment
    .


    The primary endpoint of the trial is the overall response rate (ORR)


    In terms of safety, most treatment-related adverse events (AE) are grade 1-2
    .


    In the trial, 3 patients (16%) observed treatment-related grade 3 AEs, including dyspnea (N=1), hypoalbuminemia (N=1), and skin rash (N=1)
