Understanding Mektovi (Binimetinib) and Its Medical Uses

Mektovi (binimetinib) is an oral MEK inhibitor used together with Braftovi (encorafenib) to treat BRAF-mutant cancers, offering greater anti-tumor activity and delayed resistance compared to either drug alone.

Approved Indications

Mektovi, combined with Braftovi, is FDA-approved for adults with unresectable or metastatic melanoma with a BRAF V600E or V600K mutation, and for adults with metastatic non-small cell lung cancer with a BRAF V600E mutation.

How It Works

Binimetinib inhibits MEK1/MEK2, blocking the MAPK signaling pathway downstream of mutated BRAF, which halts tumor cell growth when combined with the BRAF inhibitor encorafenib.

Dosing

The recommended dose is 45 mg orally twice daily, combined with encorafenib, continued until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity, as determined by the treating oncologist.

Warnings and Precautions for Mektovi

Mektovi, used in combination with Braftovi, requires monitoring for several important safety considerations.

Venous Thromboembolism

Including pulmonary embolism, has been reported. Monitor for signs of blood clots.

Interstitial Lung Disease / Pneumonitis

Monitor for new or progressive unexplained pulmonary symptoms.

Hepatotoxicity

Monitor liver function tests before starting, monthly during treatment, and as clinically indicated.

Cardiomyopathy

Assess left ventricular ejection fraction before starting and periodically during treatment.

Ocular Toxicity

Retinal vein occlusion and other eye disorders can occur. Perform ophthalmologic exams for visual disturbances.

Embryo-Fetal Toxicity

Mektovi can cause fetal harm. Effective contraception is required during treatment and for a defined period after the final dose.

  • Cardiac and ophthalmologic monitoring is required throughout treatment.
  • Report any leg swelling, chest pain, breathing difficulty, or visual changes to the treating physician immediately.
  • Regular liver function monitoring is required during combination therapy with Braftovi.
