Capmatinib is a little pill that’s super picky about its target. It goes after a specific part of a protein called MET, to stop it from doing its thing. So how does it work? This inhibitor snags onto a spot where ATP hooks up in the protein, and it’s like having a bouncer at the door, blocking the party.
It’s mainly used for a type of lung cancer where there’s a specific change in the MET gene’s 14th bit, which skips part of it. You’ve got two strengths to pick from: 150 mg and 200 mg, both in those easy-to-swallow coated pills. Doctors usually tell adults to take 400 mg of this stuff twice a day, no matter if they eat or not.
Each bottle holds 60 pills, and you’re supposed to take the 200 mg ones twice a day.
