Dacomitinib, sold under the brand name Vizimpro, is a medication used to treat non-small-cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC).[2] Specifically it is used for cases with certain epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations.[2] It is taken by mouth.[2]

Common side effects include diarrhea, rash, mouth inflammation, conjunctivitis, itching, liver problems, and nausea.[3] Other side effects may include interstitial lung disease.[3] Use in pregnancy may harm the baby.[2] It is a tyrosine kinase inhibitor of EGFR.[1]

Dacomitinib was approved for medical use in the United States in 2018 and Europe in 2019.[2][3] In the United States it costs about 14,300 USD per month as of 2021.[4] This amount in the United Kingdom costs the NHS about £2,700.[5]

Research

Dacomitinib has advanced to several Phase III clinical trials. The January 2014 results of the first trials were disappointing, with a failure to meet the study goals.[6][7][8] Additional Phase III trials are ongoing.[6]
