So, Dacomitinib is this special drug that’s used to treat something called Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer. It’s like a smart bomb for the EGFR pathway—it targets it specifically. This pathway is key in lung cancer growth, especially when you have these genetic changes in the EGFR gene.
You can get this drug in three doses—15, 30, and 45 milligrams—and they all come in these easy-to-swallow tablets with a coating. For adults, the suggested dose is 45 mg, and you take it by mouth every day. Each bottle holds 30 of these tablets.
It works by shutting down this thing called EGFR that cancer cells use too much, which stops the cancer from growing. It’s one of those TKIs—tyrosine kinase inhibitors—that help in fighting cancer.
