The US Food and Drug Administration appears in no hurry to try to remove Amgen, Inc.’s accelerated approval lung cancer drug Lumakras (sotorasib) from the market despite an advisory committee’s conclusion that the progression-free survival endpoint in the CodeBreaK 200 confirmatory trial could not be reliably interpreted.
