About LAZCLUZE™ In 2018, Janssen Biotech, Inc., entered into a license and collaboration agreement with Yuhan Corporation for the development of LAZCLUZE™ (marketed as LECLAZA in South Korea). LAZCLUZE™ is an oral, third-generation, brain-penetrant EGFR TKI that targets both the T790M mutation and activating EGFR mutations while sparing wild-type EGFR. An analysis of the efficacy and safety of LAZCLUZE™ from the Phase 3 LASER301 study was published in The Journal of Clinical Oncology in 2023.17 About Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Worldwide, lung cancer is one of the most common cancers, with NSCLC making up 80 to 85 percent of all lung cancer cases.18,19 The main subtypes of NSCLC are adenocarcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, and large cell carcinoma.20 Among the most common driver mutations in NSCLC are alterations in EGFR, which is a receptor tyrosine kinase controlling cell growth and division.21 EGFR mutations are present in 10 to 15 percent of Western patients with NSCLC with adenocarcinoma histology and occur in 40 to 50 percent of Asian patients.18,19,22,23,24,25 EGFR ex19del or EGFR L858R mutations are the most common EGFR mutations.26 The five-year survival rate for all people with advanced NSCLC and EGFR mutations treated with EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) is less than 20 percent.27,28 EGFR exon 20 insertion mutations are the third most prevalent activating EGFR mutation.29 Patients with EGFR exon 20 insertion mutations have a real-world five-year overall survival (OS) of eight percent in the frontline setting, which is worse than patients with EGFR ex19del or L858R mutations, who have a real-world five-year OS of 19 percent.30 IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION1,31 WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS Infusion-Related Reactions RYBREVANT® can cause infusion-related reactions (IRR) including anaphylaxis; signs and symptoms of IRR include dyspnea, flushing, fever, chills, nausea, chest discomfort, hypotension, and vomiting. The median time to IRR onset is approximately 1 hour. RYBREVANT® with LAZCLUZE™ RYBREVANT® in combination with LAZCLUZE™ can cause infusion-related reactions.

Approval based on compelling safety and efficacy from the Phase 3 MARIPOSA-2 study, marking the third new indication for RYBREVANT® this year, with four indications overall RARITAN, N.J., Sept. 17, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Johnson & Johnson (NYSE: JNJ) announced today that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved RYBREVANT® (amivantamab-vmjw) in combination with standard of care chemotherapy (carboplatin and pemetrexed) for the treatment of adult patients with locally advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) exon 19 deletions (ex19del) or L858R substitution mutations, whose disease has progressed on or after treatment with an EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI).1 "RYBREVANT plus chemotherapy may address the most common mechanisms of treatment resistance to third generation EGFR TKIs, such as osimertinib, in the first line," said Martin Dietrich*, M.D., Ph.D., Oncologist, Cancer Care Centers of Brevard. "This multitargeted combination extended progression-free survival and improved overall response compared to chemotherapy alone, offering an important and effective new second-line option for patients." The five-year survival rate is less than 20 percent for all people with advanced EGFR-mutated NSCLC.2,3 Acquired resistance mechanisms after TKI monotherapy are diverse and polyclonal, making targeted therapy at progression more difficult, thus limiting the efficacy of targeted therapies at progression.4,5 Adding immunotherapy to chemotherapy has also failed to demonstrate clinically meaningful improvements.6,7 "The progression-free survival benefits seen in the MARIPOSA-2 study are exciting," said Andrea Ferris**, President and CEO, LUNGevity Foundation. "It is good to see new therapeutic options like the combination of RYBREVANT and chemotherapy helping to address unmet needs impacting individuals with EGFR-mutated lung cancer, with the potential for positive change, which gives hope to more patients and their families." The FDA approval is based on results from the Phase 3 MARIPOSA-2 (NCT04988295) study evaluating the efficacy and safety of RYBREVANT® in combination with chemotherapy for the treatment of adult patients with locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC with EGFR ex19del or L858R substitution mutations after disease progression on or after osimertinib.1 Results showed RYBREVANT® plus chemotherapy reduced the risk of disease progression or death (progression-free survival [PFS]) by 52 percent vs. chemotherapy alone, the study's primary endpoint.1 The median PFS for patients receiving RYBREVANT® plus chemotherapy was 6.3 months, compared to 4.2 months for chemotherapy alone.1 Additionally, RYBREVANT® plus chemotherapy showed a confirmed overall response rate (ORR) of 53 percent compared to 29 percent with chemotherapy alone.1 Amivantamab-vmjw (RYBREVANT®) in combination with chemotherapy is the only National Comprehensive Cancer Network® (NCCN®) Clinical Practice Guidelines in Oncology (NCCN Guidelines®) Category 1 treatment option for patients with EGFR-mutated NSCLC progressing on osimertinib who are symptomatic with multiple lesions.8 †‡ "This milestone reinforces RYBREVANT as an important treatment option for patients with EGFR-mutated NSCLC who continue to face high unmet needs after disease progression on or after TKI therapy," said Kiran Patel, M.D., Vice President, Clinical Development, Solid Tumors, Johnson & Johnson Innovative Medicine. "Patients need and deserve effective, targeted approaches across all lines of therapy. With RYBREVANT-based regimens, we are bringing potential new standards of care to the nearly 30,000 patients diagnosed with EGFR-mutated NSCLC in the United States each year." The safety profile of RYBREVANT® in combination with chemotherapy was consistent with the established profiles of the individual treatments. Permanent discontinuation of RYBREVANT® due to adverse reactions occurred in 11 percent of patients.1 MARIPOSA-2 Publications & Presentations Results from MARIPOSA-2 were first presented in a Presidential Symposium at the European Society of Medical Oncology (ESMO) 2023 Congress (Abstract #LBA15) and simultaneously published in the Annals of Oncology.9 Regulatory Milestones This approval marks the third new indication for RYBREVANT® this year, following the August 20, 2024, U.S. FDA approval announcement of RYBREVANT® in combination with LAZCLUZE™ (lazertinib) for the first-line treatment of adult patients with locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC with EGFR exon 19 deletions or L858R substitution mutations, based on the Phase 3 MARIPOSA study, and the March 1, 2024, U.S. FDA approval announcement of RYBREVANT® in combination with chemotherapy (carboplatin-pemetrexed) for the first-line treatment of patients with locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC with EGFR exon 20 insertion mutations, based on the Phase 3 PAPILLON study.1 On June 17, 2024, Johnson & Johnson also announced the submission of a Biologics License Application to the U.S. FDA for a fixed combination of amivantamab and recombinant human hyaluronidase for subcutaneous administration (SC amivantamab) for all currently approved or submitted indications of intravenous (IV) RYBREVANT®. This application is based on the Phase 3 PALOMA-3 study, with preliminary results which showed a five-fold reduction in infusion-related reactions (IRR) with a five-minute administration of SC amivantamab.10 Longer overall survival (OS), PFS and duration of response (DOR) were also observed with SC amivantamab.10 On August 14, 2024, the U.S. FDA designated this application for Priority Review. About the MARIPOSA-2 Study MARIPOSA-2 (NCT04988295), which enrolled 657 patients, is a randomized, open-label Phase 3 study evaluating the efficacy and safety of two combination regimens of RYBREVANT® (with and without LAZCLUZE™) and chemotherapy.11 Patients with locally advanced or metastatic EGFR ex19del or L858R substitution NSCLC who had disease progression on or after treatment with osimertinib were randomized to treatment with RYBREVANT® plus chemotherapy, RYBREVANT® plus chemotherapy with LAZCLUZE™ or chemotherapy alone.11 The dual primary endpoint was used to compare the PFS (using RECIST v1.1 guidelines§) as assessed by blinded independent central review (BICR) for each experimental arm to chemotherapy alone.11 Secondary endpoints included objective response as assessed by BICR, OS, DOR, time to subsequent therapy, PFS2 and intracranial PFS.11 About RYBREVANT® RYBREVANT® (amivantamab-vmjw), a fully-human bispecific antibody targeting EGFR and MET with immune cell-directing activity, is approved in the U.S., Europe, and in other markets around the world as monotherapy for the treatment of adult patients with locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC with EGFR exon 20 insertion mutations, as detected by an FDA-approved test, whose disease has progressed on or after platinum-based chemotherapy.1 In the subcutaneous formulation, amivantamab is co-formulated with recombinant human hyaluronidase PH20 (rHuPH20), Halozyme's ENHANZE® drug delivery technology. RYBREVANT® is approved in the U.S., Europe, and in other markets around the world in combination with chemotherapy (carboplatin and pemetrexed) for the first-line treatment of adult patients with locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC with EGFR exon 20 insertion mutations, as detected by an FDA-approved test. RYBREVANT® is approved in the U.S. in combination with LAZCLUZE™ (lazertinib) for the first-line treatment of adult patients with locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC with EGFR exon 19 deletions or L858R substitution mutations, as detected by an FDA-approved test. A marketing authorization application (MAA) and type II extension of indication application were submitted to the EMA seeking approval of LAZCLUZE™ in combination with RYBREVANT® based on the MARIPOSA study. In November 2023, Johnson & Johnson submitted a supplemental Biologics License Application (sBLA) to the U.S. FDA for RYBREVANT® in combination with chemotherapy for the treatment of patients with EGFR-mutated NSCLC who progressed on or after osimertinib based on the MARIPOSA-2 study. This indication was approved in Europe in August 2024. In June 2024, Johnson & Johnson submitted a BLA to the U.S. FDA for the subcutaneous formulation of RYBREVANT® in combination with LAZCLUZE™ for all currently approved or submitted indications of IV RYBREVANT® in certain patients with NSCLC. In August 2024, the U.S. FDA designated this application for Priority Review. The NCCN Clinical Practice Guidelines in Oncology (NCCN Guidelines®) for NSCLC¶ prefer next-generation sequencing–based strategies over polymerase chain reaction–based approaches for the detection of EGFR exon 20 insertion variants. The NCCN Guidelines include: Amivantamab-vmjw (RYBREVANT®) plus lazertinib (LAZCLUZE™) as a Category 1 recommendation for first-line therapy in patients with locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC with EGFR exon 19 deletions or exon 21 L858R mutations.8 †‡ Amivantamab-vmjw (RYBREVANT®) plus chemotherapy as a Category 1 recommendation for patients with locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC with EGFR exon 19 deletions or exon 21 L858R mutations who experienced disease progression after treatment with osimertinib.8 †‡ Amivantamab-vmjw (RYBREVANT®) plus carboplatin and pemetrexed as a Category 1 recommendation for first-line therapy in treatment-naive patients with newly diagnosed advanced or metastatic EGFR exon 20 insertion mutation-positive advanced NSCLC, or as a Category 2A recommendation for patients that have progressed on or after platinum-based chemotherapy with or without immunotherapy and have EGFR exon 20 insertion mutation-positive advanced NSCLC.8 †‡ Amivantamab-vmjw (RYBREVANT®) as a Category 2A recommendation for patients that have progressed on or after platinum-based chemotherapy with or without an immunotherapy and have EGFR exon 20 insertion mutation-positive NSCLC.8 †‡ In addition to MARIPOSA-2, RYBREVANT® is being studied in multiple clinical trials in NSCLC, including: The Phase 3 MARIPOSA (NCT04487080) study assessing RYBREVANT® in combination with LAZCLUZE™ versus osimertinib and versus LAZCLUZE™ alone in the first-line treatment of patients with locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC with EGFR ex19del or substitution mutations.12 The Phase 3 PAPILLON (NCT04538664) study assessing RYBREVANT® in combination with carboplatin-pemetrexed versus chemotherapy alone in the first-line treatment of patients with advanced or metastatic NSCLC with EGFR exon 20 insertion mutations.13 The Phase 3 PALOMA-3 (NCT05388669) study assessing LAZCLUZE™ with subcutaneous amivantamab compared to intravenous amivantamab in patients with EGFR-mutated advanced or metastatic NSCLC.10 The Phase 1 CHRYSALIS (NCT02609776) study evaluating RYBREVANT® in patients with advanced NSCLC.14 The Phase 1/1b CHRYSALIS-2 (NCT04077463) study evaluating RYBREVANT® in combination with LAZCLUZE™ and LAZCLUZE™ as a monotherapy in patients with advanced NSCLC with EGFR mutations.15 The Phase 1 PALOMA (NCT04606381) study assessing the feasibility of subcutaneous administration of amivantamab based on safety and pharmacokinetics and to determine a dose, dose regimen and formulation for amivantamab subcutaneous delivery.16 The Phase 2 PALOMA-2 (NCT05498428) study assessing subcutaneous amivantamab in patients with advanced or metastatic solid tumors including EGFR-mutated NSCLC.17 The Phase 1/2 METalmark (NCT05488314) study assessing RYBREVANT® and capmatinib combination therapy in locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC.18 The Phase 1/2 PolyDamas (NCT05908734) study assessing RYBREVANT® and cetrelimab combination therapy in locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC.19 The Phase 2 SKIPPirr study (NCT05663866) exploring how to decrease the incidence and/or severity of first-dose infusion-related reactions with RYBREVANT® in combination with LAZCLUZE™ in relapsed or refractory EGFR-mutated advanced or metastatic NSCLC.20 For more information, visit: .

The median time to IRR onset is approximately 1 hour. RYBREVANT® with LAZCLUZE™ RYBREVANT® in combination with LAZCLUZE™ can cause infusion-related reactions. In MARIPOSA (n=421), IRRs occurred in 63% of patients treated with RYBREVANT® in combination with LAZCLUZE™, including Grade 3 in 5% and Grade 4 in 1% of patients. The incidence of infusion modifications due to IRR was 54% of patients, and IRRs leading to dose reduction of RYBREVANT® occurred in 0.7% of patients. Infusion-related reactions leading to permanent discontinuation of RYBREVANT® occurred in 4.5% of patients receiving RYBREVANT® in combination with LAZCLUZE™. RYBREVANT® with Carboplatin and Pemetrexed Based on the pooled safety population (n=281), IRR occurred in 50% of patients treated with RYBREVANT® in combination with carboplatin and pemetrexed, including Grade 3 (3.2%) adverse reactions. The incidence of infusion modifications due to IRR was 46%, and 2.8% of patients permanently discontinued RYBREVANT® due to IRR. RYBREVANT® as a Single Agent In CHRYSALIS (n=302), IRR occurred in 66% of patients treated with RYBREVANT®. Among patients receiving treatment on Week 1 Day 1, 65% experienced an IRR, while the incidence of IRR was 3.4% with the Day 2 infusion, 0.4% with the Week 2 infusion, and cumulatively 1.1% with subsequent infusions. Of the reported IRRs, 97% were Grade 1-2, 2.2% were Grade 3, and 0.4% were Grade 4. The median time to onset was 1 hour (range 0.1 to 18 hours) after start of infusion. The incidence of infusion modifications due to IRR was 62% and 1.3% of patients permanently discontinued RYBREVANT® due to IRR. Premedicate with antihistamines, antipyretics, and glucocorticoids and infuse RYBREVANT® as recommended. Administer RYBREVANT® via a peripheral line on Week 1 and Week 2 to reduce the risk of infusion-related reactions. Monitor patients for signs and symptoms of infusion reactions during RYBREVANT® infusion in a setting where cardiopulmonary resuscitation medication and equipment are available. Interrupt infusion if IRR is suspected. Reduce the infusion rate or permanently discontinue RYBREVANT® based on severity. Interstitial Lung Disease/Pneumonitis RYBREVANT® can cause severe and fatal interstitial lung disease (ILD)/pneumonitis. RYBREVANT® with LAZCLUZE™ In MARIPOSA, ILD/pneumonitis occurred in 3.1% of patients treated with RYBREVANT® in combination with LAZCLUZE™, including Grade 3 in 1.0% and Grade 4 in 0.2% of patients. There was one fatal case (0.2%) of ILD/pneumonitis and 2.9% of patients permanently discontinued RYBREVANT® and LAZCLUZE™ due to ILD/pneumonitis. RYBREVANT® with Carboplatin and Pemetrexed Based on the pooled safety population, ILD/pneumonitis occurred in 2.1% treated with RYBREVANT® in combination with carboplatin and pemetrexed with 1.8% of patients experiencing Grade 3 ILD/pneumonitis. 2.1% discontinued RYBREVANT® due to ILD/pneumonitis. RYBREVANT® as a Single Agent In CHRYSALIS, ILD/pneumonitis occurred in 3.3% of patients treated with RYBREVANT®, with 0.7% of patients experiencing Grade 3 ILD/pneumonitis. Three patients (1%) permanently discontinued RYBREVANT® due to ILD/pneumonitis. Monitor patients for new or worsening symptoms indicative of ILD/pneumonitis (e.g., dyspnea, cough, fever). For patients receiving RYBREVANT® in combination with LAZCLUZE™, immediately withhold both drugs in patients with suspected ILD/pneumonitis and permanently discontinue if ILD/pneumonitis is confirmed. For patients receiving RYBREVANT® as a single agent or in combination with carboplatin and pemetrexed, immediately withhold RYBREVANT® in patients with suspected ILD/pneumonitis and permanently discontinue if ILD/pneumonitis is confirmed. Venous Thromboembolic (VTE) Events with Concomitant Use of RYBREVANT® and LAZCLUZE™ RYBREVANT® in combination with LAZCLUZE™ can cause serious and fatal venous thromboembolic (VTE) events, including deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism. The majority of these events occurred during the first four months of therapy. In MARIPOSA, VTEs occurred in 36% of patients receiving RYBREVANT® in combination with LAZCLUZE™, including Grade 3 in 10% and Grade 4 in 0.5% of patients. On-study VTEs occurred in 1.2% of patients (n=5) while receiving anticoagulation therapy. There were two fatal cases of VTE (0.5%), 9% of patients had VTE leading to dose interruptions of RYBREVANT®, and 7% of patients had VTE leading to dose interruptions of LAZCLUZE™; 1% of patients had VTE leading to dose reductions of RYBREVANT®, and 0.5% of patients had VTE leading to dose reductions of LAZCLUZE™; 3.1% of patients had VTE leading to permanent discontinuation of RYBREVANT®, and 1.9% of patients had VTE leading to permanent discontinuation of LAZCLUZE™. The median time to onset of VTEs was 84 days (range: 6 to 777). Administer prophylactic anticoagulation for the first four months of treatment. The use of Vitamin K antagonists is not recommended. Monitor for signs and symptoms of VTE events and treat as medically appropriate. Withhold RYBREVANT® and LAZCLUZE™ based on severity. Once anticoagulant treatment has been initiated, resume RYBREVANT® and LAZCLUZE™ at the same dose level at the discretion of the healthcare provider. In the event of VTE recurrence despite therapeutic anticoagulation, permanently discontinue RYBREVANT® and continue treatment with LAZCLUZE™ at the same dose level at the discretion of the healthcare provider. Dermatologic Adverse Reactions RYBREVANT® can cause severe rash including toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN), dermatitis acneiform, pruritus, and dry skin. RYBREVANT® with LAZCLUZE™ In MARIPOSA, rash occurred in 86% of patients treated with RYBREVANT® in combination with LAZCLUZE™, including Grade 3 in 26% of patients. The median time to onset of rash was 14 days (range: 1 to 556 days). Rash leading to dose interruptions occurred in 37% of patients for RYBREVANT® and 30% for LAZCLUZE™, rash leading to dose reductions occurred in 23% of patients for RYBREVANT® and 19% for LAZCLUZE™, and rash leading to permanent discontinuation occurred in 5% of patients for RYBREVANT® and 1.7% for LAZCLUZE™. RYBREVANT® with Carboplatin and Pemetrexed Based on the pooled safety population, rash occurred in 82% of patients treated with RYBREVANT® in combination with carboplatin and pemetrexed, including Grade 3 (15%) adverse reactions. Rash leading to dose reductions occurred in 14% of patients, and 2.5% permanently discontinued RYBREVANT® and 3.1% discontinued pemetrexed. RYBREVANT® as a Single Agent In CHRYSALIS, rash occurred in 74% of patients treated with RYBREVANT® as a single agent, including Grade 3 rash in 3.3% of patients. The median time to onset of rash was 14 days (range: 1 to 276 days). Rash leading to dose reduction occurred in 5% of patients, and RYBREVANT® was permanently discontinued due to rash in 0.7% of patients. Toxic epidermal necrolysis occurred in one patient (0.3%) treated with RYBREVANT® as a single agent. Instruct patients to limit sun exposure during and for 2 months after treatment with RYBREVANT® or LAZCLUZE™ in combination with RYBREVANT®. Advise patients to wear protective clothing and use broad-spectrum UVA/UVB sunscreen. Alcohol-free (e.g., isopropanol-free, ethanol-free) emollient cream is recommended for dry skin. When initiating RYBREVANT® treatment with or without LAZCLUZE™, administer alcohol-free emollient cream to reduce the risk of dermatologic adverse reactions. Consider prophylactic measures (e.g. use of oral antibiotics) to reduce the risk of dermatologic reactions. If skin reactions develop, start topical corticosteroids and topical and/or oral antibiotics. For Grade 3 reactions, add oral steroids and consider dermatologic consultation. Promptly refer patients presenting with severe rash, atypical appearance or distribution, or lack of improvement within 2 weeks to a dermatologist. For patients receiving RYBREVANT® in combination with LAZCLUZE™, withhold, reduce the dose, or permanently discontinue both drugs based on severity. For patients receiving RYBREVANT® as a single agent or in combination with carboplatin and pemetrexed, withhold, dose reduce or permanently discontinue RYBREVANT® based on severity. Ocular Toxicity RYBREVANT® can cause ocular toxicity including keratitis, blepharitis, dry eye symptoms, conjunctival redness, blurred vision, visual impairment, ocular itching, eye pruritus, and uveitis. RYBREVANT® with LAZCLUZE™ In MARIPOSA, ocular toxicity occurred in 16% of patients treated with RYBREVANT® in combination with LAZCLUZE™, including Grade 3 or 4 ocular toxicity in 0.7% of patients. Withhold, reduce the dose, or permanently discontinue RYBREVANT® and continue LAZCLUZE™ based on severity. RYBREVANT® with Carboplatin and Pemetrexed Based on the pooled safety population, ocular toxicity occurred in 16% of patients treated with RYBREVANT® in combination with carboplatin and pemetrexed. All events were Grade 1 or 2. RYBREVANT® as a Single Agent In CHRYSALIS, keratitis occurred in 0.7% and uveitis occurred in 0.3% of patients treated with RYBREVANT®. All events were Grade 1-2. Promptly refer patients with new or worsening eye symptoms to an ophthalmologist. Withhold, reduce the dose, or permanently discontinue RYBREVANT® based on severity. Embryo-Fetal Toxicity Based on its mechanism of action and findings from animal models, RYBREVANT® and LAZCLUZE™ can cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman.

Median duration of response reaches 7.4 months with combination treatment in patients with aggressive form of disease New results show potential of RYBREVANT® beyond lung cancer BARCELONA, Sept. 14, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Johnson & Johnson (NYSE:JNJ) today announced new data from the Phase 1b/2 OrigAMI-1 study, which showed RYBREVANT® (amivantamab-vmjw) combined with chemotherapy (mFOLFOX6 [FOLFOX] or FOLFIRI) demonstrated promising rapid and durable antitumor activity in patients with RAS/BRAF wild-type (WT) metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) who have not previously received anti-epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) therapy. These data were presented in a mini-oral presentation at the European Society of Medical Oncology (ESMO) 2024 Congress.1 "OrigAMI-1 is the first study to show RYBREVANT plus chemotherapy may provide clinically meaningful benefits to patients with metastatic colorectal cancer who have not received any EGFR-targeted treatments as their first or second line of therapy," said Filippo Pietrantonio, M.D., medical oncologist at Fondazione IRCCS Istituto Nazionale dei Tumori in Milan, Italy, and presenting author.* "Notably, we saw 21 percent of patients proceed to curative intent surgery, showing the promise of RYBREVANT in patients in this setting." In the study, patients receiving RYBREVANT® plus chemotherapy were either in their first (26 percent) or second line (74 percent) of treatment for mCRC and had not been treated with specific anti-EGFR therapies. Patients receiving FOLFOX were oxaliplatin-naïve and patients receiving FOLFIRI were irinotecan-naïve. Response was assessed by the investigator per RECIST v1.1.** Forty-three patients were treated with RYBREVANT® along with either FOLFOX (20 patients) or FOLFIRI (23 patients). The median follow-up period was 7.3 months for RYBREVANT® plus FOLFOX and RYBREVANT® plus FOLFIRI.1 Patients treated with RYBREVANT® plus chemotherapy achieved an overall response rate (ORR) of 49 percent (95 percent confidence interval [CI], 33-65), median duration of response of 7.4 months (95 percent CI, 5.6-not estimable [NE]) and median progression-free survival of 7.5 months (95 percent CI, 7.4‒NE). Disease control was observed in 88 percent of patients (95 percent CI, 75-96). Clinically meaningful intrahepatic antitumor activity was observed among patients with liver metastases treated with RYBREVANT® plus chemotherapy, demonstrating a significant reduction in liver tumors (ORR of 53 percent, disease control rate of 93 percent). Notably, nine (21 percent) patients were able to proceed to curative-intent surgery due to strong antitumor activity.1 The safety profile of RYBREVANT® plus FOLFOX/FOLFIRI was manageable and consistent with each of the individual components, without any additive toxicity. No new safety signals were observed. The most frequent treatment-emergent adverse events were neutropenia, rash, stomatitis, infusion-related reactions (IRRs) and diarrhea. All IRRs were Grade 1 or 2 and there were no Grade 3 or higher IRR events reported. Treatment-related discontinuations of RYBREVANT® were 10 percent for RYBREVANT® plus FOLFOX and nine percent for RYBREVANT® plus FOLFIRI.1 "Confirmation that RYBREVANT has activity beyond lung cancer, given its unique multi-targeted approach in inhibiting EGFR and MET, is a potentially important step forward for patients with EGFR inhibitor-naïve metastatic colorectal cancer," said Kiran Patel, M.D., Vice President, Clinical Development, Solid Tumors, Johnson & Johnson Innovative Medicine. "Colorectal cancer is the third most common cancer globally, representing about 10 percent of all cancer cases and the second leading cause of cancer-related deaths. Our commitment to advancing cancer care drives us to evaluate every possibility to improve patient outcomes, and these findings highlight the potential of RYBREVANT to help even more patients with cancer." Pivotal Phase 3 registration trials evaluating RYBREVANT®-based regimens as first- and second-line treatment in colorectal cancer are planned. About the OrigAMI-1 Study OrigAMI-1 (NCT05379595) is an open-label Phase 1b/2 study assessing the efficacy and safety of RYBREVANT® plus mFOLFOX6 or FOLFIRI in anti-EGFR-naïve RAS/BRAF WT mCRC. Eligible patients were WT for KRAS, NRAS or BRAF genes based on circulating tumor DNA testing. Additionally, patients were required to have no amplification of the ERBB2/HER2 gene. In the RYBREVANT® and chemotherapy cohorts, patients were either treatment-naïve or had received at least one prior line in the metastatic setting (no EGFR inhibitor treatment). The primary endpoint of the combination cohorts was to characterize the safety and confirm the dose of RYBREVANT® plus mFOLFOX6 or FOLFIRI. Response was assessed by the investigator per RECIST v1.1.2 About RYBREVANT® RYBREVANT® (amivantamab-vmjw), a fully-human bispecific antibody targeting EGFR and MET with immune cell-directing activity, is approved in the U.S., Europe, and in other markets around the world as monotherapy for the treatment of adult patients with locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC with EGFR exon 20 insertion mutations, as detected by an FDA-approved test, whose disease has progressed on or after platinum-based chemotherapy.3 RYBREVANT® is approved in the U.S., Europe, and in markets around the world in combination with chemotherapy (carboplatin and pemetrexed) for the first-line treatment of adult patients with locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC with EGFR exon 20 insertion mutations, as detected by an FDA-approved test. RYBREVANT® is approved in the U.S. in combination with LAZCLUZE™ (lazertinib) for the first-line treatment of adult patients with locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC with EGFR exon 19 deletions or L858R substitution mutations, as detected by an FDA-approved test. A marketing authorization application (MAA) and type II extension of indication application were submitted to the European Medicines Agency (EMA) seeking approval of LAZCLUZE™ in combination with RYBREVANT® based on the MARIPOSA study. In November 2023, Johnson & Johnson submitted a supplemental Biologics License Application (sBLA) to the U.S. FDA for RYBREVANT® in combination with chemotherapy for the treatment of patients with EGFR-mutated NSCLC who progressed on or after osimertinib based on the MARIPOSA-2 study. This indication was approved in Europe in August 2024. In June 2024, Johnson & Johnson submitted a BLA to the U.S. FDA for the subcutaneous formulation of RYBREVANT® in combination with LAZCLUZE™ for all currently approved or submitted indications of intravenous (IV) RYBREVANT® in certain patients with NSCLC. A submission for the extension of the RYBREVANT® marketing authorization (line extension) was also submitted to the EMA seeking approval for this indication.

About Colorectal Cancer Colorectal cancer is the third most common cancer worldwide, accounting for approximately 10 percent of all cancer cases and is the second leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide.18 While it predominantly affects older individuals, recent research suggests that colorectal cancer is now being diagnosed in adults under the age of 50 at record rates.19 Left-sided colorectal cancer, which represents approximately 65 percent of cases, often has distinct characteristics that influence treatment strategies. Around half of colorectal cancer patients have mutations in the RAS genes, with KRAS being the most common mutation. While tumors with normal RAS and BRAF genes generally respond better to EGFR inhibitors, those with RAS and BRAF mutations – particularly on the left side – are associated with poorer outcomes.20 IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION3,21 WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS Infusion-Related Reactions RYBREVANT® can cause infusion-related reactions (IRR); signs and symptoms of IRR include dyspnea, flushing, fever, chills, nausea, chest discomfort, hypotension, and vomiting. The median time to IRR onset is approximately 1 hour. RYBREVANT® with LAZCLUZE™ RYBREVANT® in combination with LAZCLUZE™ can cause infusion-related reactions. In MARIPOSA (n=421), IRRs occurred in 63% of patients treated with RYBREVANT® in combination with LAZCLUZE™, including Grade 3 in 5% and Grade 4 in 1% of patients. The incidence of infusion modifications due to IRR was 54% of patients, and IRRs leading to dose reduction of RYBREVANT® occurred in 0.7% of patients. Infusion-related reactions leading to permanent discontinuation of RYBREVANT® occurred in 4.5% of patients receiving RYBREVANT® in combination with LAZCLUZE™. RYBREVANT® with Carboplatin and Pemetrexed In PAPILLON (n=151), infusion-related reactions occurred in 42% of patients treated with RYBREVANT® in combination with carboplatin and pemetrexed, including Grade 3 (1.3%) adverse reactions. The incidence of infusion modifications due to IRR was 40%, and 0.7% of patients permanently discontinued RYBREVANT®. RYBREVANT® as a Single Agent In CHRYSALIS (n=302), IRR occurred in 66% of patients treated with RYBREVANT®. Among patients receiving treatment on Week 1 Day 1, 65% experienced an IRR, while the incidence of IRR was 3.4% with the Day 2 infusion, 0.4% with the Week 2 infusion, and cumulatively 1.1% with subsequent infusions. Of the reported IRRs, 97% were Grade 1-2, 2.2% were Grade 3, and 0.4% were Grade 4. The median time to onset was 1 hour (range 0.1 to 18 hours) after start of infusion. The incidence of infusion modifications due to IRR was 62% and 1.3% of patients permanently discontinued RYBREVANT® due to IRR. Premedicate with antihistamines, antipyretics, and glucocorticoids and infuse RYBREVANT® as recommended. Administer RYBREVANT® via a peripheral line on Week 1 and Week 2 to reduce the risk of infusion-related reactions. Monitor patients for signs and symptoms of infusion reactions during RYBREVANT® infusion in a setting where cardiopulmonary resuscitation medication and equipment are available. Interrupt infusion if IRR is suspected. Reduce the infusion rate or permanently discontinue RYBREVANT® based on severity. Interstitial Lung Disease/Pneumonitis RYBREVANT® can cause severe and fatal interstitial lung disease (ILD)/pneumonitis. RYBREVANT® with LAZCLUZE™ In MARIPOSA, ILD/pneumonitis occurred in 3.1% of patients treated with RYBREVANT® in combination with LAZCLUZE™, including Grade 3 in 1.0% and Grade 4 in 0.2% of patients. There was one fatal case (0.2%) of ILD/pneumonitis and 2.9% of patients permanently discontinued RYBREVANT® and LAZCLUZE™ due to ILD/pneumonitis.

In MARIPOSA, VTEs occurred in 36% of patients receiving RYBREVANT® in combination with LAZCLUZE™, including Grade 3 in 10% and Grade 4 in 0.5% of patients. On-study VTEs occurred in 1.2% of patients (n=5) while receiving anticoagulation therapy. There were two fatal cases of VTE (0.5%), 9% of patients had VTE leading to dose interruptions of RYBREVANT®, and 7% of patients had VTE leading to dose interruptions of LAZCLUZE™; 1% of patients had VTE leading to dose reductions of RYBREVANT®, and 0.5% of patients had VTE leading to dose reductions of LAZCLUZE™; 3.1% of patients had VTE leading to permanent discontinuation of RYBREVANT®, and 1.9% of patients had VTE leading to permanent discontinuation of LAZCLUZE™. The median time to onset of VTEs was 84 days (range: 6 to 777). Administer prophylactic anticoagulation for the first four months of treatment. The use of Vitamin K antagonists is not recommended. Monitor for signs and symptoms of VTE events and treat as medically appropriate. Withhold RYBREVANT® and LAZCLUZE™ based on severity. Once anticoagulant treatment has been initiated, resume RYBREVANT® and LAZCLUZE™ at the same dose level at the discretion of the healthcare provider. In the event of VTE recurrence despite therapeutic anticoagulation, permanently discontinue RYBREVANT® and continue treatment with LAZCLUZE™ at the same dose level at the discretion of the healthcare provider.

Rash leading to dose reductions occurred in 19% of patients, and 2% permanently discontinued RYBREVANT® and 1.3% discontinued pemetrexed. RYBREVANT® as a Single Agent In CHRYSALIS, rash occurred in 74% of patients treated with RYBREVANT® as a single agent, including Grade 3 rash in 3.3% of patients. The median time to onset of rash was 14 days (range: 1 to 276 days). Rash leading to dose reduction occurred in 5% of patients, and RYBREVANT® was permanently discontinued due to rash in 0.7% of patients. Toxic epidermal necrolysis occurred in one patient (0.3%) treated with RYBREVANT® as a single agent. Instruct patients to limit sun exposure during and for 2 months after treatment with RYBREVANT® or LAZCLUZE™ in combination with RYBREVANT®. Advise patients to wear protective clothing and use broad-spectrum UVA/UVB sunscreen. Alcohol-free (e.g., isopropanol-free, ethanol-free) emollient cream is recommended for dry skin. When initiating RYBREVANT® treatment with or without LAZCLUZE™, administer alcohol-free emollient cream to reduce the risk of dermatologic adverse reactions. Consider prophylactic measures (e.g. use of oral antibiotics) to reduce the risk of dermatologic reactions. If skin reactions develop, start topical corticosteroids and topical and/or oral antibiotics. For Grade 3 reactions, add oral steroids and consider dermatologic consultation. Promptly refer patients presenting with severe rash, atypical appearance or distribution, or lack of improvement within 2 weeks to a dermatologist. For patients receiving RYBREVANT® in combination with LAZCLUZE™, withhold, dose reduce or permanently discontinue both drugs based on severity. For patients receiving RYBREVANT® as a single agent or in combination with carboplatin and pemetrexed, withhold, dose reduce or permanently discontinue RYBREVANT® based on severity. Ocular Toxicity RYBREVANT® can cause ocular toxicity including keratitis, blepharitis, dry eye symptoms, conjunctival redness, blurred vision, visual impairment, ocular itching, eye pruritus, and uveitis. RYBREVANT® with LAZCLUZE™ In MARIPOSA, ocular toxicity occurred in 16% of patients treated with RYBREVANT® in combination with LAZCLUZE™, including Grade 3 or 4 ocular toxicity in 0.7% of patients.
