Selpercatinib: Indication, Dosage, Side Effect

Indication:

Selpercatinib is used to treat cancers caused by specific changes (mutations or fusions) in the RET gene. It is approved for patients with RET fusion-positive non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), RET-mutant medullary thyroid cancer (MTC), and RET fusion-positive thyroid cancer that has spread or cannot be removed by surgery. Selpercatinib works by blocking the abnormal RET protein that helps cancer cells grow. By targeting this mutation, it slows or stops the cancer from spreading, especially in patients who have limited treatment options.

Dosage:                               

Selpercatinib is an oral targeted cancer therapy used to treat certain cancers with RET gene alterations, such as non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and thyroid cancer. The typical dose for adults is 160 mg taken twice daily (total of 320 mg per day), with or without food. For children or patients with lower body weight, the dose is based on weight (e.g., 120 mg twice daily if under 50 kg). The capsules should be swallowed whole, not crushed or chewed. Dosage may be adjusted based on how well the patient tolerates treatment and any side effects that occur.
