Befotertinib is a once-a-day capsule for advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that carries an EGFR mutation. It was discovered by InventisBio and is developed, made and sold in China by Betta Pharmaceuticals under the brand name 赛美纳® (Surmana). It belongs to the third generation of EGFR-targeted tablets and capsules, which were designed to keep working when the cancer becomes resistant to older EGFR treatment.
China's National Medical Products Administration (NMPA) first approved it in May 2023 and added a first-line use in September 2023. It is approved for adults with locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC who have:
It is a prescription cancer medicine and should only be used under a medical oncologist or chest physician, after an EGFR mutation test.
EGFR is a switch on the surface of lung cells that tells them to grow. In some lung cancers this switch is faulty and stuck in the "on" position. Befotertinib binds to the faulty switch permanently and turns it off. It works on the common exon 19 and L858R faults, and also on T790M, the change that most often makes older EGFR medicines stop working.
First treatment (IBIO-103): this phase 3 trial, published in The Lancet Respiratory Medicine in 2023, enrolled 362 adults at 39 hospitals in China. It compared befotertinib with an older, first-generation EGFR medicine. The cancer was kept under control for a median of 22.1 months with befotertinib against 13.8 months with the comparison medicine, cutting the risk of the disease getting worse by about half (hazard ratio 0.49). In people whose cancer had already spread to the brain, the median was 19.4 months against 13.7 months.
After earlier EGFR treatment (T790M): in the phase 2 registration study, about two in three patients (67.6%) responded, the median time before progression was 16.6 months, and brain tumours shrank in 55.9% of those who had them. In the updated results, people on the 75–100 mg dose lived for a median of 31.5 months.
The capsules come in a 25 mg strength. In the clinical trials the dose was:
Your oncologist will set the exact dose using the Chinese prescribing information and your blood test results.
This information is not a treatment plan. For personalized medical advice, consult your doctor and refer to the full prescribing information.
Platelets and blood counts: a fall in platelets (the cells that help blood clot) was the most common side effect in the trials. Your doctor will check your blood counts regularly, and the dose may be kept lower or paused if platelets drop. Tell your doctor about unusual bruising or bleeding.
Overall: most side effects were mild or moderate and could be managed by monitoring and adjusting the dose. Always give your doctor a full list of the medicines and supplements you take.
Step 1 – Search & request your medicine: The patient or treating doctor submits a request with basic details to initiate the access process.
