8.4 Pediatric Use
The safety and effectiveness of LAZCLUZE in pediatric patients have not been established.
8.5 Geriatric Use
Of the 421 patients with locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC treated with LAZCLUZE in combination with amivantamab in MARIPOSA, 45% were 65 years and older and 12% were 75 years and older. No overall differences in safety or effectiveness were observed between patients aged 65 and older and younger patients.
14 Clinical Studies
The efficacy of LAZCLUZE, in combination with amivantamab, was evaluated in MARIPOSA [NCT04487080], a randomized, active-controlled, multicenter trial. Eligible patients were required to have untreated locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC with either exon 19 deletions or exon 21 L858R substitution EGFR mutations identified by local testing, not amenable to curative therapy. Patients with asymptomatic or previously treated and stable intracranial metastases were eligible to enroll.
Patients were randomized (2:2:1) to receive LAZCLUZE in combination with amivantamab (N=429), osimertinib monotherapy (N=429), or LAZCLUZE monotherapy (an unapproved regimen for NSCLC) until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. The evaluation of efficacy for the treatment of untreated metastatic NSCLC relied upon comparison between:
- LAZCLUZE administered at 240 mg orally once daily in combination with amivantamab administered intravenously at 1050 mg (for patients < 80 kg) or 1400 mg (for patients ≥ 80 kg) once weekly for 4 weeks, then every 2 weeks thereafter starting at week 5.
- Osimertinib administered at a dose of 80 mg orally once daily.
Randomization was stratified by EGFR mutation type (exon 19 deletion or exon 21 L858R substitution mutation), Asian race (yes or no), and history of brain metastasis (yes or no). Tumor assessments were performed every 8 weeks for 30 months, and then every 12 weeks until disease progression.
The major efficacy outcome measure was progression-free survival (PFS) as assessed by blinded independent central review (BICR). Additional efficacy outcome measures included overall survival (OS), overall response rate (ORR) and duration of response (DOR).
A total of 858 patients were randomized between the two study arms, 429 to the LAZCLUZE in combination with amivantamab arm and 429 to the osimertinib arm. The median age was 63 (range: 25–88) years; 61% were female; 58% were Asian, and 38% were White, 1.6% were American Indian or Alaska Native, 0.8% were Black or African American, 0.2% were Native Hawaiian or other Pacific Islander, 0.6% were unknown race or multiple races; and 12% were Hispanic or Latino. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status was 0 (34%) or 1 (66%); 69% never smoked; 41% had prior brain metastases; and 89% had Stage IV cancer at initial diagnosis. Sixty percent of patients had tumors harboring exon 19 deletions and the remaining 40% had exon 21 L858R substitution mutations.
Among the 858 patients with EGFR exon 19 deletion or L858R substitution mutations that were randomized between the amivantamab plus LAZCLUZE arm versus the osimertinib arm, available tissue samples from 544 (63%) patients had evaluable results when tested retrospectively using the cobas EGFR Mutation Test v2. Of the 544 patients with evaluable results, 527 (97%) patients were positive for EGFR exon 19 deletion or L858R substitution mutations, while 17 (3%) patients were negative. Available plasma samples from patients were retrospectively tested using an FDA-approved test to confirm the biomarker status.
The trial demonstrated a statistically significant improvement in PFS by BICR assessment and OS for LAZCLUZE in combination with amivantamab compared to osimertinib (see Table 5and Figures 1and 2).
Efficacy results are provided in Table 5.

5.4 Ocular Toxicity
LAZCLUZE, in combination with amivantamab, can cause ocular toxicity, including keratitis.
In MARIPOSA [see Adverse Reactions (6.1)] , ocular toxicity occurred in 16% of patients treated with LAZCLUZE in combination with amivantamab, including Grade 3 or 4 ocular toxicity in 0.7% of patients. Promptly refer patients presenting with new or worsening eye symptoms to an ophthalmologist. Withhold, reduce the dose or permanently discontinue amivantamab and continue LAZCLUZE based on severity [see Dosage and Administration (2.4)] .
6 Adverse Reactions
The following adverse reactions are discussed elsewhere in the labeling:
- Venous Thromboembolic Events [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1)]
- Interstitial Lung Disease/Pneumonitis [see Warnings and Precautions (5.2)]
- Dermatologic Adverse Reactions [see Warnings and Precautions (5.3)]
- Ocular Toxicity [see Warnings and Precautions (5.4)]
7 Drug Interactions
Strong and moderate CYP3A4 inducers:Avoid concomitant use. ( 7.1)
8.6 Renal Impairment
No dose adjustment is recommended in patients with mild or moderate renal impairment (eGFR 30 – 89 mL/min) [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3)] .
LAZCLUZE has not been studied in patients with severe renal impairment or end-stage renal disease (eGFR < 30 mL/min).
12.2 Pharmacodynamics
The exposure-response relationship and time-course of pharmacodynamic response of lazertinib have not been fully characterized.
12.3 Pharmacokinetics
Lazertinib pharmacokinetics are presented as mean (CV%) for descriptive parameters unless otherwise specified.
Lazertinib maximum plasma concentration (C max) and area under plasma concentration time curve (AUC) increased dose proportionally from 20 mg to 320 mg (0.08 to 1.3 times the approved recommended dosage) following a single administration and once daily administration. Lazertinib steady state plasma exposure was achieved by day 15 with approximately 2-fold accumulation for AUC.
2.1 Patient Selection
Select patients for the first-line treatment of NSCLC with LAZCLUZE, in combination with amivantamab, based on the presence of EGFR exon 19 deletions or exon 21 L858R substitution mutations in tumor or plasma specimens [see Clinical Studies (14)] . If these mutations are not detected in a plasma specimen, test tumor tissue. Information on FDA-approved tests is available at: http://www.fda.gov/CompanionDiagnostics.
8.7 Hepatic Impairment
No dose adjustment is recommended in patients with mild (total bilirubin ≤ ULN and AST > ULN or total bilirubin ≤ 1.5×ULN and any AST) or moderate (total bilirubin ≤ 1.5 to 3×ULN and any AST) hepatic impairment [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3)] .
LAZCLUZE has not been studied in patients with severe hepatic impairment (total bilirubin > 3×ULN and any AST).
1 Indications and Usage
LAZCLUZE, in combination with amivantamab, is indicated for the first-line treatment of adult patients with locally advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) exon 19 deletions or exon 21 L858R substitution mutations, as detected by an FDA-approved test [see Dosage and Administration (2.1)] .
12.1 Mechanism of Action
Lazertinib is a kinase inhibitor of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) that inhibits EGFR exon 19 deletions and exon 21 L858R substitution mutations at lower concentrations than wild-type EGFR. In human NSCLC cells and mouse xenograft models of EGFR exon 19 deletions or EGFR L858R substitution mutations, lazertinib demonstrated anti-tumor activity. Treatment with lazertinib in combination with amivantamab increased in vivo anti-tumor activity compared to either agent alone in a mouse xenograft model of human NSCLC with an EGFR L858R mutation.
5.5 Embryo Fetal Toxicity
Based on findings from animal studies and its mechanism of action, LAZCLUZE can cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman. In animal reproduction studies, oral administration of lazertinib to pregnant animals during the period of organogenesis resulted in reduced embryo-fetal survival and fetal body weight in rats and malformations in rabbits at exposures approximately 4 and 0.5 times, respectively, the human exposure at the recommended dose of 240 mg/day based on AUC.
Advise pregnant women and females of reproductive potential of the potential risk to a fetus. Advise females of reproductive potential to use effective contraception during treatment with LAZCLUZE and for 3 weeks after the last dose. Advise male patients with female partners of reproductive potential to use effective contraception during treatment with LAZCLUZE and for 3 weeks after the last dose [see Use in Specific Populations (8.1, 8.3)].
5 Warnings and Precautions
- Venous Thromboembolic Events (VTE):Prophylactic anticoagulation is recommended for the first four months of treatment. Monitor for signs and symptoms of VTE and treat as medically appropriate. Withhold LAZCLUZE and amivantamab based on severity. Once anticoagulant treatment has been initiated, resume LAZCLUZE and amivantamab at the same dose at the discretion of the healthcare provider. Permanently discontinue amivantamab and continue LAZCLUZE for recurrent VTE despite therapeutic anticoagulation. (2.3, 2.4, 5.1)
- Interstitial Lung Disease (ILD)/Pneumonitis: Monitor for new or worsening symptoms indicative of ILD/pneumonitis. Withhold LAZCLUZE and amivantamab in patients with suspected ILD/pneumonitis and permanently discontinue if ILD/pneumonitis is confirmed. ( 2.4, 5.2)
- Dermatologic Adverse Reactions: Can cause severe rash including acneiform dermatitis. At treatment initiation, prophylactic and concomitant medications are recommended. Withhold, reduce the dose or permanently discontinue LAZCLUZE and amivantamab based on severity. (2.3, 2.4, 5.3)
- Ocular Adverse Reactions: Promptly refer patients with new or worsening signs and symptoms of ocular adverse reactions, including keratitis, to an ophthalmologist for evaluation. Withhold, reduce the dose, or permanently discontinue amivantamab and continue LAZCLUZE based on severity. ( 5.4)
- Embryo-Fetal Toxicity: Can cause fetal harm. Advise patients of reproductive potential of the potential risk to a fetus and to use effective contraception. ( 5.5, 8.1, 8.3)
2 Dosage and Administration

6.1 Clinical Trials Experience
Because clinical trials are conducted under widely varying conditions, adverse reaction rates observed in the clinical trials of a drug cannot be directly compared to rates in the clinical trials of another drug and may not reflect the rates observed in practice.
The data described in WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS and below reflect exposure to LAZCLUZE in combination with amivantamab in 421 previously untreated patients with locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC whose tumors have EGFR exon 19 deletions or exon 21 L858R substitution mutations in MARIPOSA [see Clinical Studies (14)] . Patients received LAZCLUZE 240 mg orally once daily in combination with amivantamab intravenously at 1,050 mg (for patients < 80 kg) or 1,400 mg (for patients ≥ 80 kg) once weekly for 4 weeks, then every 2 weeks thereafter starting at week 5. Among the 421 patients who received LAZCLUZE in combination with amivantamab, 84% were exposed to LAZCLUZE for ≥ 6 months and 73% were exposed to LAZCLUZE for > 1 year.
The median age of patients who received LAZCLUZE in combination with amivantamab was 64 years (25 to 88); 64% were female; 59% were Asian, 38% were White, 1.7% were American Indian or Alaska Native, 0.7% were Black or African American, 1% were of unknown or other races; 13% were Hispanic or Latino; 67% had Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status (PS) of 1, 33% had ECOG PS of 0; 60% had EGFR exon 19 deletions, and 40% had EGFR exon 21 L858R substitution mutations.
Serious adverse reactions occurred in 49% of patients who received LAZCLUZE in combination with amivantamab. Serious adverse reactions occurring in ≥ 2% of patients included VTE (11%), pneumonia (4%), rash and ILD/pneumonitis (2.9% each), COVID-19 (2.4%), and pleural effusion and infusion-related reaction (amivantamab) (2.1% each). Fatal adverse reactions occurred in 7% of patients who received LAZCLUZE in combination with amivantamab due to death not otherwise specified (1.2%); sepsis and respiratory failure (1% each); pneumonia, myocardial infarction, and sudden death (0.7% each); cerebral infarction, pulmonary embolism (PE), and COVID-19 infection (0.5% each); and ILD/pneumonitis, acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), and cardiopulmonary arrest (0.2% each).
Permanent discontinuation of LAZCLUZE due to an adverse reaction occurred in 21% of patients. Adverse reactions which resulted in permanent discontinuation of LAZCLUZE in ≥ 1% of patients included ILD/pneumonitis, pneumonia, VTE, rash, respiratory failure, and sudden death.

5.1 Venous Thromboembolic Events
LAZCLUZE in combination with amivantamab can cause serious and fatal venous thromboembolic events (VTE), including deep venous thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE). The majority of these events occurred during the first four months of therapy [see Adverse Reactions (6.1)] .
In MARIPOSA [see Adverse Reactions (6.1)] , VTE occurred in 36% of patients receiving LAZCLUZE in combination with amivantamab, 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%), 7% of patients had VTE leading to dose interruptions of LAZCLUZE, 0.5% of patients had VTE leading to dose reductions of LAZCLUZE, and 1.9% of patients permanently discontinued LAZCLUZE due to VTE. The median time to onset of VTEs was 84 days (range: 6 to 777).
Administer prophylactic anticoagulation for the first four months of treatment [see Dosage and Administration (2.3)] . The use of Vitamin K antagonists is not recommended. Monitor for signs and symptoms of VTE and treat as medically appropriate.
Withhold LAZCLUZE and amivantamab based on severity [see Dosage and Administration (2.4)]. Once anticoagulant treatment has been initiated, resume LAZCLUZE and amivantamab at the same dose level at the discretion of the healthcare provider. In the event of VTE recurrence despite therapeutic anticoagulation, permanently discontinue amivantamab. Continue treatment with LAZCLUZE at the same dose level at the discretion of the healthcare provider [see Dosage and Administration (2.4)] . Refer to the amivantamab prescribing information for recommended amivantamab dosage modification.
17 Patient Counseling Information
Advise the patient to read the FDA-approved patient labeling (Patient Information).
5.3 Dermatologic Adverse Reactions
LAZCLUZE in combination with amivantamab can cause severe rash including dermatitis acneiform, pruritus and dry skin.
In MARIPOSA [see Adverse Reactions (6.1)] , rash occurred in 86% of patients treated with LAZCLUZE in combination with amivantamab, 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 reduction of LAZCLUZE occurred in 19% of patients, rash leading to dose interruption of LAZCLUZE occurred in 30% of patients, and LAZCLUZE was permanently discontinued due to rash in 1.7% of patients [see Adverse Reactions (6.1)].
When initiating treatment with LAZCLUZE in combination with amivantamab, prophylactic and concomitant medications are recommended to reduce the risk and severity of dermatologic adverse reactions [see Dosage and Administration (2.3)]. Instruct patients to limit sun exposure during and for 2 months after treatment with LAZCLUZE in combination with amivantamab. Advise patients to wear protective clothing and use broad-spectrum UVA/UVB sunscreen.
If skin reactions develop, administer supportive care including topical corticosteroids and topical and/or oral antibiotics. For Grade 3 reactions, administer 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. Withhold, reduce the dose or permanently discontinue LAZCLUZE and amivantamab based on severity [see Dosage and Administration (2.4)] .

13.2 Animal Toxicology And/or Pharmacology
In repeat-dose oral general toxicology studies up to 13-weeks duration in rats and dogs, lazertinib induced multi-organ histologic hyperplasia at exposures approximately equivalent or greater to the human exposure at the recommended dose of 240 mg. Hyperplasia was not reversible in the mandibular lymph node in the 4-week rat study. In rats, lazertinib induced renal toxicity characterized by histologic hyperplasia and inflammation in the kidney at doses ≥ 25 mg/kg (approximately 0.9 times the human exposure at the recommended dose of 240 mg/day based on AUC), along with increased urea nitrogen and histologic papillary necrosis, tubule degeneration/regeneration, and tubule dilatation at exposures approximately 4.4 times the human exposure at the recommended dose of 240 mg/day based on AUC. Increased urea nitrogen, papillary necrosis, and tubule dilatation showed evidence of recovery. In the 13-week toxicology study in dogs, one high dose animal exhibited unilateral tubule cell renal carcinoma at 8 mg/kg/day (approximately 2 times the human exposure at the recommended dose of 240 mg/day based on AUC). Other renal findings in high dose dogs included tubule degeneration/regeneration and infarct, which showed evidence of recovery. In the 4-week toxicology study, lazertinib induced cardiac toxicity in two dogs characterized by histologic findings in the heart (degeneration/necrosis of the myocardium and vessels, fibrosis, hemorrhage, thrombus, mixed cell/vessel inflammation) at 20 mg/kg (approximately 4.8 times the clinical AUC at the 240 mg human dose). One of these dogs also exhibited increased cardiac troponin I and premature ventricular complexes. These cardiac findings were not seen after a 2-week recovery period.

13.1 Carcinogenesis, Mutagenesis, Impairment of Fertility
Carcinogenicity studies have not been conducted with lazertinib.
Lazertinib was not genotoxic in an in vitro bacterial reverse mutation (Ames) assay, an in vitro chromosomal aberration assay, or an in vivo micronucleus assay in rats.
In a dedicated fertility and early embryonic development study, male and female rats received oral doses of 7.5, 15, or 30 mg/kg/day of lazertinib. Males were dosed for 10 weeks (29 days prior to pairing, during mating period and continuing post-pairing). Females were dosed for 15 days prior to pairing, during mating period and up to Gestation Day 7. Lazertinib did not have clear effects on estrous cyclicity, mating, fertility, or sperm parameters, but induced an increase in post-implantation loss and decreased number of live fetuses at 30 mg/kg/day (approximately 1.2 times the recommended human dose of 240 mg based on body surface area). In repeat-dose oral general toxicology studies up to 13-weeks duration, lazertinib induced histologic tubular degeneration in the testis; cellular lumen debris, degeneration/necrosis, and reduced sperm in the epididymis; decreased corpora lutea in the ovary; and atrophy in the uterus and vagina. These effects were observed at exposures approximately equivalent to the human exposure at the recommended dose of 240 mg in males, and at exposures approximately 2 times the human exposure at the recommended dose of 240 mg dose in females. Findings in female reproductive organs were reversible. The tubular degeneration in the testis observed in rats at exposures approximately 4 times the human exposure at the recommended dose was not reversible within a 2-week recovery period.

8.4 Pediatric Use
The safety and effectiveness of LAZCLUZE in pediatric patients have not been established.
8.5 Geriatric Use
Of the 421 patients with locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC treated with LAZCLUZE in combination with amivantamab in MARIPOSA, 45% were 65 years and older and 12% were 75 years and older. No overall differences in safety or effectiveness were observed between patients aged 65 and older and younger patients.
14 Clinical Studies (14 CLINICAL STUDIES)
The efficacy of LAZCLUZE, in combination with amivantamab, was evaluated in MARIPOSA [NCT04487080], a randomized, active-controlled, multicenter trial. Eligible patients were required to have untreated locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC with either exon 19 deletions or exon 21 L858R substitution EGFR mutations identified by local testing, not amenable to curative therapy. Patients with asymptomatic or previously treated and stable intracranial metastases were eligible to enroll.
Patients were randomized (2:2:1) to receive LAZCLUZE in combination with amivantamab (N=429), osimertinib monotherapy (N=429), or LAZCLUZE monotherapy (an unapproved regimen for NSCLC) until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. The evaluation of efficacy for the treatment of untreated metastatic NSCLC relied upon comparison between:
- LAZCLUZE administered at 240 mg orally once daily in combination with amivantamab administered intravenously at 1050 mg (for patients < 80 kg) or 1400 mg (for patients ≥ 80 kg) once weekly for 4 weeks, then every 2 weeks thereafter starting at week 5.
- Osimertinib administered at a dose of 80 mg orally once daily.
Randomization was stratified by EGFR mutation type (exon 19 deletion or exon 21 L858R substitution mutation), Asian race (yes or no), and history of brain metastasis (yes or no). Tumor assessments were performed every 8 weeks for 30 months, and then every 12 weeks until disease progression.
The major efficacy outcome measure was progression-free survival (PFS) as assessed by blinded independent central review (BICR). Additional efficacy outcome measures included overall survival (OS), overall response rate (ORR) and duration of response (DOR).
A total of 858 patients were randomized between the two study arms, 429 to the LAZCLUZE in combination with amivantamab arm and 429 to the osimertinib arm. The median age was 63 (range: 25–88) years; 61% were female; 58% were Asian, and 38% were White, 1.6% were American Indian or Alaska Native, 0.8% were Black or African American, 0.2% were Native Hawaiian or other Pacific Islander, 0.6% were unknown race or multiple races; and 12% were Hispanic or Latino. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status was 0 (34%) or 1 (66%); 69% never smoked; 41% had prior brain metastases; and 89% had Stage IV cancer at initial diagnosis. Sixty percent of patients had tumors harboring exon 19 deletions and the remaining 40% had exon 21 L858R substitution mutations.
Among the 858 patients with EGFR exon 19 deletion or L858R substitution mutations that were randomized between the amivantamab plus LAZCLUZE arm versus the osimertinib arm, available tissue samples from 544 (63%) patients had evaluable results when tested retrospectively using the cobas EGFR Mutation Test v2. Of the 544 patients with evaluable results, 527 (97%) patients were positive for EGFR exon 19 deletion or L858R substitution mutations, while 17 (3%) patients were negative. Available plasma samples from patients were retrospectively tested using an FDA-approved test to confirm the biomarker status.
The trial demonstrated a statistically significant improvement in PFS by BICR assessment and OS for LAZCLUZE in combination with amivantamab compared to osimertinib (see Table 5and Figures 1and 2).
Efficacy results are provided in Table 5.

Lazertinib pharmacokinetics are presented as mean (CV%) for descriptive parameters unless otherwise specified.
Lazertinib maximum plasma concentration (C max) and area under plasma concentration time curve (AUC) increased dose proportionally from 20 mg to 320 mg (0.08 to 1.3 times the approved recommended dosage) following a single administration and once daily administration. Lazertinib steady state plasma exposure was achieved by day 15 with approximately 2-fold accumulation for AUC.
2.1 Patient Selection
Select patients for the first-line treatment of NSCLC with LAZCLUZE, in combination with amivantamab, based on the presence of EGFR exon 19 deletions or exon 21 L858R substitution mutations in tumor or plasma specimens [see Clinical Studies (14)] . If these mutations are not detected in a plasma specimen, test tumor tissue. Information on FDA-approved tests is available at: http://www.fda.gov/CompanionDiagnostics.
8.7 Hepatic Impairment
No dose adjustment is recommended in patients with mild (total bilirubin ≤ ULN and AST > ULN or total bilirubin ≤ 1.5×ULN and any AST) or moderate (total bilirubin ≤ 1.5 to 3×ULN and any AST) hepatic impairment [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3)] .
LAZCLUZE has not been studied in patients with severe hepatic impairment (total bilirubin > 3×ULN and any AST).
1 Indications and Usage (1 INDICATIONS AND USAGE)
LAZCLUZE, in combination with amivantamab, is indicated for the first-line treatment of adult patients with locally advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) exon 19 deletions or exon 21 L858R substitution mutations, as detected by an FDA-approved test [see Dosage and Administration (2.1)] .
12.1 Mechanism of Action
Lazertinib is a kinase inhibitor of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) that inhibits EGFR exon 19 deletions and exon 21 L858R substitution mutations at lower concentrations than wild-type EGFR. In human NSCLC cells and mouse xenograft models of EGFR exon 19 deletions or EGFR L858R substitution mutations, lazertinib demonstrated anti-tumor activity. Treatment with lazertinib in combination with amivantamab increased in vivo anti-tumor activity compared to either agent alone in a mouse xenograft model of human NSCLC with an EGFR L858R mutation.
5.5 Embryo Fetal Toxicity (5.5 Embryo-Fetal Toxicity)
Based on findings from animal studies and its mechanism of action, LAZCLUZE can cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman. In animal reproduction studies, oral administration of lazertinib to pregnant animals during the period of organogenesis resulted in reduced embryo-fetal survival and fetal body weight in rats and malformations in rabbits at exposures approximately 4 and 0.5 times, respectively, the human exposure at the recommended dose of 240 mg/day based on AUC.
Advise pregnant women and females of reproductive potential of the potential risk to a fetus. Advise females of reproductive potential to use effective contraception during treatment with LAZCLUZE and for 3 weeks after the last dose. Advise male patients with female partners of reproductive potential to use effective contraception during treatment with LAZCLUZE and for 3 weeks after the last dose [see Use in Specific Populations (8.1, 8.3)].
5 Warnings and Precautions (5 WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS)

5.1 Venous Thromboembolic Events
LAZCLUZE in combination with amivantamab can cause serious and fatal venous thromboembolic events (VTE), including deep venous thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE). The majority of these events occurred during the first four months of therapy [see Adverse Reactions (6.1)] .
In MARIPOSA [see Adverse Reactions (6.1)] , VTE occurred in 36% of patients receiving LAZCLUZE in combination with amivantamab, 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%), 7% of patients had VTE leading to dose interruptions of LAZCLUZE, 0.5% of patients had VTE leading to dose reductions of LAZCLUZE, and 1.9% of patients permanently discontinued LAZCLUZE due to VTE. The median time to onset of VTEs was 84 days (range: 6 to 777).
Administer prophylactic anticoagulation for the first four months of treatment [see Dosage and Administration (2.3)] . The use of Vitamin K antagonists is not recommended. Monitor for signs and symptoms of VTE and treat as medically appropriate.
Withhold LAZCLUZE and amivantamab based on severity [see Dosage and Administration (2.4)]. Once anticoagulant treatment has been initiated, resume LAZCLUZE and amivantamab at the same dose level at the discretion of the healthcare provider. In the event of VTE recurrence despite therapeutic anticoagulation, permanently discontinue amivantamab. Continue treatment with LAZCLUZE at the same dose level at the discretion of the healthcare provider [see Dosage and Administration (2.4)] . Refer to the amivantamab prescribing information for recommended amivantamab dosage modification.
17 Patient Counseling Information (17 PATIENT COUNSELING INFORMATION)
Advise the patient to read the FDA-approved patient labeling (Patient Information).
5.3 Dermatologic Adverse Reactions
LAZCLUZE in combination with amivantamab can cause severe rash including dermatitis acneiform, pruritus and dry skin.
In MARIPOSA [see Adverse Reactions (6.1)] , rash occurred in 86% of patients treated with LAZCLUZE in combination with amivantamab, 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 reduction of LAZCLUZE occurred in 19% of patients, rash leading to dose interruption of LAZCLUZE occurred in 30% of patients, and LAZCLUZE was permanently discontinued due to rash in 1.7% of patients [see Adverse Reactions (6.1)].
When initiating treatment with LAZCLUZE in combination with amivantamab, prophylactic and concomitant medications are recommended to reduce the risk and severity of dermatologic adverse reactions [see Dosage and Administration (2.3)]. Instruct patients to limit sun exposure during and for 2 months after treatment with LAZCLUZE in combination with amivantamab. Advise patients to wear protective clothing and use broad-spectrum UVA/UVB sunscreen.
If skin reactions develop, administer supportive care including topical corticosteroids and topical and/or oral antibiotics. For Grade 3 reactions, administer 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. Withhold, reduce the dose or permanently discontinue LAZCLUZE and amivantamab based on severity [see Dosage and Administration (2.4)] .

13.2 Animal Toxicology And/or Pharmacology (13.2 Animal Toxicology and/or Pharmacology)
In repeat-dose oral general toxicology studies up to 13-weeks duration in rats and dogs, lazertinib induced multi-organ histologic hyperplasia at exposures approximately equivalent or greater to the human exposure at the recommended dose of 240 mg. Hyperplasia was not reversible in the mandibular lymph node in the 4-week rat study. In rats, lazertinib induced renal toxicity characterized by histologic hyperplasia and inflammation in the kidney at doses ≥ 25 mg/kg (approximately 0.9 times the human exposure at the recommended dose of 240 mg/day based on AUC), along with increased urea nitrogen and histologic papillary necrosis, tubule degeneration/regeneration, and tubule dilatation at exposures approximately 4.4 times the human exposure at the recommended dose of 240 mg/day based on AUC. Increased urea nitrogen, papillary necrosis, and tubule dilatation showed evidence of recovery. In the 13-week toxicology study in dogs, one high dose animal exhibited unilateral tubule cell renal carcinoma at 8 mg/kg/day (approximately 2 times the human exposure at the recommended dose of 240 mg/day based on AUC). Other renal findings in high dose dogs included tubule degeneration/regeneration and infarct, which showed evidence of recovery. In the 4-week toxicology study, lazertinib induced cardiac toxicity in two dogs characterized by histologic findings in the heart (degeneration/necrosis of the myocardium and vessels, fibrosis, hemorrhage, thrombus, mixed cell/vessel inflammation) at 20 mg/kg (approximately 4.8 times the clinical AUC at the 240 mg human dose). One of these dogs also exhibited increased cardiac troponin I and premature ventricular complexes. These cardiac findings were not seen after a 2-week recovery period.

5.2 Interstitial Lung Disease (ild)/pneumonitis (5.2 Interstitial Lung Disease (ILD)/Pneumonitis)
LAZCLUZE in combination with amivantamab can cause interstitial lung disease (ILD)/pneumonitis.
In MARIPOSA [see Adverse Reactions (6.1)], ILD/pneumonitis occurred in 3.1% of patients treated with LAZCLUZE in combination with amivantamab, 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 LAZCLUZE and amivantamab due to ILD/pneumonitis [see Adverse Reactions (6.1)].
Monitor patients for new or worsening symptoms indicative of ILD/pneumonitis (e.g., dyspnea, cough, fever). Immediately withhold LAZCLUZE and amivantamab in patients with suspected ILD/pneumonitis and permanently discontinue if ILD/pneumonitis is confirmed [see Dosage and Administration (2.4)].

13.1 Carcinogenesis, Mutagenesis, Impairment of Fertility
Carcinogenicity studies have not been conducted with lazertinib.
Lazertinib was not genotoxic in an in vitro bacterial reverse mutation (Ames) assay, an in vitro chromosomal aberration assay, or an in vivo micronucleus assay in rats.
In a dedicated fertility and early embryonic development study, male and female rats received oral doses of 7.5, 15, or 30 mg/kg/day of lazertinib. Males were dosed for 10 weeks (29 days prior to pairing, during mating period and continuing post-pairing). Females were dosed for 15 days prior to pairing, during mating period and up to Gestation Day 7. Lazertinib did not have clear effects on estrous cyclicity, mating, fertility, or sperm parameters, but induced an increase in post-implantation loss and decreased number of live fetuses at 30 mg/kg/day (approximately 1.2 times the recommended human dose of 240 mg based on body surface area). In repeat-dose oral general toxicology studies up to 13-weeks duration, lazertinib induced histologic tubular degeneration in the testis; cellular lumen debris, degeneration/necrosis, and reduced sperm in the epididymis; decreased corpora lutea in the ovary; and atrophy in the uterus and vagina. These effects were observed at exposures approximately equivalent to the human exposure at the recommended dose of 240 mg in males, and at exposures approximately 2 times the human exposure at the recommended dose of 240 mg dose in females. Findings in female reproductive organs were reversible. The tubular degeneration in the testis observed in rats at exposures approximately 4 times the human exposure at the recommended dose was not reversible within a 2-week recovery period.
