2 DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION • Recommended dosage as a single agent for NSCLC and in combination with cetuximab for CRC: 600 mg orally twice daily. ( 2.2 ) • Swallow tablets whole with or without food. ( 2.2 ) 2.1 Patient Selection Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Select patients for treatment of locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC with KRAZATI based on the presence of KRAS G12C mutation in plasma or tumor specimens [see Clinical Studies (14.1) ] . If no mutation is detected in a plasma specimen, test tumor tissue. Colorectal Cancer Select patients for treatment of locally advanced or metastatic CRC with KRAZATI based on the presence of KRAS G12C mutation in tumor specimens [see Clinical Studies (14.2) ] . Information on FDA-approved tests for the detection of a KRAS G12C mutation is available at: https://www.fda.gov/CompanionDiagnostics 2.2 Recommended Dosage The recommended dosage of KRAZATI as a single agent or in combination with cetuximab is 600 mg orally twice daily until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Refer to the cetuximab prescribing information for cetuximab dosage information [see Clinical Studies (14.2) ] . Take KRAZATI at the same time every day with or without food [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3) ]. Swallow tablets whole. Do not chew, crush or split tablets. If vomiting occurs after taking KRAZATI, do not take an additional dose. Resume dosing at the next scheduled time. If a dose is inadvertently missed, it should be skipped if greater than 4 hours have elapsed from the expected dosing time. Resume dosing at the next scheduled time. 2.3 Dosage Modifications for Adverse Reactions Recommended dose reductions for adverse reactions for use of KRAZATI as a single agent or in combination with cetuximab are outlined in Table 1. If adverse reactions occur, a maximum of two dose reductions are permitted. Permanently discontinue KRAZATI in patients who are unable to tolerate 600 mg once daily.
