🩺 Clinical

Label name TABRECTA 150 MG TABLET Ingredient Capmatinib Hydrochloride
📖 What it is MedlinePlus · NLM

Capmatinib is used to treat a certain type of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that has spread to other parts of the body. Capmatinib is in a class of medications called kinase inhibitors. It works by blocking the action of an abnormal protein that signals cancer cells to multiply. This helps slow or stop the spread of cancer cells.

14 inactive ingredients listed in the exact product block matched to this NDC.

Where does this data come from?
Data sourced from official FDA Structured Product Labeling (SPL) via DailyMed — ingredient classCode="IACT" elements from the exact product block matched by this NDC. Label-section narrative from DailyMed / the openFDA label index is shown separately when available.

Inactive ingredient FAQ

Are inactive ingredients the same for every manufacturer?
No. Inactive ingredients can differ by manufacturer, dosage form, strength, and package / product version.
Why might an inactive ingredient be missing?
Some SPLs do not provide a complete structured inactive-ingredient list, and older or unusual labels may only include the information in narrative text.
Can inactive ingredients matter?
Yes. They can matter for allergies, intolerances, dyes, gluten / lactose concerns, preservatives, and formulation differences — but confirm with a pharmacist or the manufacturer when it’s clinically important.

💲 Pricing

A drug doesn't have one price. Each row is a different public payment system, and none is what you'd pay at the counter — that depends on your insurance. The ⓘ on each row explains what it measures.

Price systemPer eachPer package
Retail pharmacies payNADAC · weekly Not in the retail survey — common for institutional, discontinued, or low-volume packs.
Medicaid paysCMS SDUD · 12 mo No recent Medicaid claims on file for this NDC — rare and low-volume NDCs are suppressed in the public data.
Medicare drug plans payPart D · Q2 2026 $205.00 $11,479.80 / 56 tablets
Where does this data come from?
NADAC (National Average Drug Acquisition Cost) is the CMS weekly pharmacy-acquisition-cost survey — what pharmacies pay. ASP (Average Sales Price) is the CMS Medicare Part B drug-payment file, published quarterly. Medicaid pays is computed by us from CMS State Drug Utilization Data (total reimbursed ÷ units, trailing 12 months) — gross of rebates and inclusive of dispensing fees, so it reflects what Medicaid paid, not an acquisition cost. Medicare drug plans pay is the median negotiated point-of-sale unit cost across plans listing this NDC in the CMS quarterly Prescription Drug Plan pricing files, before rebates. The VA pays is the federal contract price (FSS, and the statutory Big 4 ceiling where listed) from the VA National Acquisition Center pharmaceutical price file. All are free public government data; each measures a different payer, so the figures are not directly comparable.

We did not find an FDA-approved generic match for this exact strength, form and route. Patent/protection dates below may affect future generic timing.

🛡️ Latest patent/protection date listed: FDA patent/protection data lists protections through Jul 2035. This may affect when a full generic version becomes widely available, but it is not a guaranteed launch date.

Why the date isn’t exact: Generic timing can change because patents may be challenged, settled, licensed, added, removed, or worked around with a narrower label — and FDA approval does not always mean a pharmacy can get the generic today.

🏛️FDA exclusivity
FDA-granted marketing protection. It’s separate from patents and may be shorter than patent protection.
🧪Product / substance patents
Patents covering the active ingredient, product, formulation, or related drug features.
🎯Method-of-use patents
Patents covering specific approved uses. These can sometimes be carved out with a “skinny label,” but not always.
🛈 What do these terms mean?
Patent
Legal protection listed in the Orange Book that may delay generic approval or launch. Issued by the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office.
Substance patent
Covers the active drug molecule itself — the hardest to design around. A generic generally can’t launch until it expires.
Formulation (product) patent
Covers a specific formulation or dosage form. A generic can sometimes work around it with a different formulation.
Method-of-use patent
A patent covering one specific approved use of the drug — not necessarily the whole molecule. A generic can sometimes launch with a “skinny label” that carves out the protected use and keeps the others.
Skinny label
A generic label that omits a still-patented use when the FDA allows it — letting a generic reach the market for the unprotected uses.
Exclusivity
FDA-granted marketing protection, separate from patents — e.g. 5-yr new chemical entity, 7-yr orphan drug, or a +6-month pediatric extension.
Paragraph IV
A generic applicant’s formal challenge to a listed patent. It can potentially lead to earlier generic entry, but often involves litigation or a settlement.
RLD / RS
Reference Listed Drug — the brand product the FDA uses as the reference for generic applications. Reference Standard — the product the FDA expects generics to compare against in bioequivalence testing.
TE / AB rating
FDA therapeutic-equivalence rating. An AB rating generally means the FDA considers a generic therapeutically equivalent to — and substitutable for — the brand.
LOE (loss of exclusivity)
The latest patent or exclusivity currently listed — the loss-of-exclusivity / latest-listed-protection date shown on this page. Paragraph-IV challenges and settlements can move the real date earlier; FDA approval and a manufacturer’s decision to market can move it later.

Built from the FDA Orange Book. The bars above are scaled to each protection’s expiry; the red LOE marker is the last one to lapse.

Common questions
Is there a generic version of TABRECTA 150 MG TABLET?
No FDA-approved generic equivalent is currently listed in the FDA Orange Book for TABRECTA 150 MG TABLET. Based on the patents and exclusivity currently listed, the Orange Book estimate is that full-label generic entry may be delayed until Jul 2035 — an estimate, not a guaranteed launch date.
The FDA approved a generic — why can’t I get it at my pharmacy yet?
FDA approval and pharmacy availability are two different things. The FDA can approve a generic years before it actually reaches pharmacies, because the brand company may still hold patents or have a settlement that delays the launch. A manufacturer also has to choose to make and sell it, and have supply ready. So a drug can be “FDA-approved generic exists” and still be brand-only at the counter today.
Why do different websites show different generic release dates?
Generic availability is not based on one single date. Some sources use the first exclusivity expiration, some use the last product patent, and others use the latest method-of-use patent. Patent challenges, settlements, licenses, and label carve-outs can also change the real-world launch date. This page shows the underlying Orange Book dates so you can see why estimates may differ.
What does “FDA listed” mean?
It means the product appears in the FDA’s official NDC directory. That’s a good sign a product exists and is intended for the U.S. market, but on its own it does not confirm a pharmacy can fill it today. Where we have recent retail pricing data (NADAC) for a product, we label it “Availability likely” instead.
What does a patent or protection date mean here?
It’s the latest date currently listed in the FDA Orange Book for a patent or exclusivity on the brand product. It can affect when a full generic version becomes widely available — but it is not a guaranteed generic launch date. Generics sometimes arrive earlier (through a settlement or patent challenge) or later (a manufacturer still has to make and sell one).
What does “current Orange Book estimate” mean?
It means we are using the latest patent and exclusivity dates currently listed in the FDA Orange Book. It is not a guaranteed launch date.
Can a generic come out before the last patent expires?
Sometimes. A generic company may challenge a patent, settle with the brand manufacturer, receive a license, or obtain approval with a narrower label that avoids a patented use. In other cases, the last listed protection may delay full-label generic competition.
Can a generic come out after the listed dates?
Yes. Even after patents or exclusivity expire, a generic still needs FDA approval and a manufacturer must choose to market it. Supply, litigation, business decisions, or regulatory issues can delay actual availability.
What is the difference between patents and exclusivity?
Patents are legal protections usually issued by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office. FDA exclusivity is marketing protection granted by the FDA. They are separate, and either one can affect generic timing.
Why are there multiple patent dates?
One drug can have several patents covering different things: the active ingredient, a formulation, a manufacturing process, or a specific approved use. That is why a page may show several expiration dates instead of one simple generic date.
Built from FDA Orange Book patent and exclusivity data. Dates are refreshed from public FDA data when available; the marker is max(latest patent expiry, latest exclusivity expiry). Paragraph-IV settlements and first-filer 180-day exclusivity can shift the real date; a method-of-use patent may allow an earlier skinny-label generic for non-protected indications. Generic launch timing is an estimate, not a guarantee.
Where does this data come from?
Patents and exclusivity from the FDA Orange Book (small-molecule drugs), refreshed from public FDA data. Generic launch timing is an estimate, not a guarantee.

📊 Medicare Part D spend CMS · PART D · 2026 (Q1)

Medicare Part D (outpatient prescription) spending for Tabrecta — the program that covers self-administered drugs. 1 manufacturer.
⚠️ Drug-level data: CMS publishes Part D spending by drug, not by NDC — these figures combine every manufacturer, strength and package size sold under the name Tabrecta. That’s a different level of aggregation than the Medicaid card above, which is specific to this exact 11-digit NDC (pack size included), so the two aren’t directly comparable.

Questions about this listing

Why is there no price listed?
The pricing shown on our NDC pages comes from CMS NADAC, a voluntary survey of retail community pharmacy invoices. CMS does not publish a NADAC for every NDC — packages outside the retail survey (institutional and hospital products, bulk packages, discontinued items, and many OTC items) may never receive one. A missing price reflects the survey's scope, not this product's actual cost, and does not mean the product is free or unavailable.
Is the NDC printed on the package the same as the 11-digit billing NDC?
Yes, they identify this exact package in different formats. The FDA registers it as 0078-0709-94, which is what is printed on the packaging and shown on DailyMed. Insurance claims use a fixed 11-digit 5-4-2 format, so the short segment is padded with a leading zero: 00078-0709-94, written without dashes as 00078070994. The Identity section at the top of this page lists every form of this code.
What do the three segments of this NDC mean?
In 00078-0709-94, the first segment (00078) is the labeler code FDA assigned to Novartis Pharmaceuticals Corporation; the middle segment (0709) identifies this specific product — its ingredient, strength, and dosage form; and the last segment (94) identifies this exact package size and type. Together they name one specific package of one specific product.
Is this package still being marketed?
Yes, per the latest FDA NDC Directory data on this page: this package is listed as actively marketed, with no marketing end date reported by Novartis Pharmaceuticals Corporation. Listing status can change — the directory data on this page refreshes weekly.
Does this product come in other package sizes?
Yes — the FDA directory lists 1 other package presentation of this same product, including 56 tablets (00078-0709-56). Each has its own NDC and its own page — see the package list near the top of this page.
Who lists this product with the FDA?
Novartis Pharmaceuticals Corporation is the labeler of record for this NDC — the company under whose FDA-assigned code the package is listed. The labeler may be the manufacturer itself or a distributor marketing the product under its own code.
Do I need a prescription for this product?
This NDC is listed with FDA as a prescription product, so it is dispensed under a prescriber's order. Your pharmacist can tell you whether any over-the-counter forms of the same medication exist.
This page identifies an FDA-listed package (the NDC) and reports public regulatory and pricing data about the listing. It is reference information, not a medical recommendation — talk to your pharmacist or prescriber about your own medication.
Where does this data come from?

8 USE IN SPECIFIC POPULATIONS Lactation : Advise not to breastfeed. ( 8.2 )

8.1Pregnancy Risk Summary Based on findings from animal studies and its mechanism of action [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.1)] , TABRECTA can cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman. There are no available data on TABRECTA use in pregnant women. Oral administration of capmatinib to pregnant rats and rabbits during the period of organogenesis resulted in malformations at maternal exposures less than the human exposure based on AUC at the 400 mg twice daily clinical dose ( see Data ).

Advise pregnant women of the potential risk to a fetus. In the U.S. general population, the estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage in clinically recognized pregnancies is 2% to 4% and 15% to 20%, respectively. Data Animal Data In rats, maternal toxicity (reduced body weight gain and food consumption) occurred at 30 mg/kg/day (approximately 1.4 times the human exposure based on AUC at the 400 mg twice daily clinical dose).

Fetal effects included reduced fetal weights, irregular/incomplete ossification, and increased incidences of fetal malformations (e.g., abnormal flexure/inward malrotation of hindpaws/forepaws, thinness of forelimbs, lack of/reduced flexion at the humerus/ulna joints, and narrowed or small tongue) at doses of ≥ 10 mg/kg/day (approximately 0.6 times the human exposure based on AUC at the 400 mg twice daily clinical dose). In rabbits, no maternal effects were detected at doses up to 60 mg/kg/day (approximately 1.5 times the human exposure based on AUC at the 400 mg twice daily clinical dose).

Fetal effects included small lung lobe at ≥ 5 mg/kg/day (approximately 0.016 times the human exposure based on AUC at the 400 mg twice daily clinical dose), and reduced fetal weights, irregular/incomplete ossification and increased incidences of fetal malformations (e.g., abnormal flexure/malrotation of hindpaws/forepaws, thinness of forelimbs/hindlimbs, lack of/reduced flexion at the humerus/ulna joints, small lung lobes, narrowed or small tongue) at the dose of 60 mg/kg/day.

8.2Lactation Risk Summary There are no data on the presence of capmatinib or its metabolites in either human or animal milk or its effects on the breastfed child or on milk production. Because of the potential for serious adverse reactions in breastfed children, advise women not to breastfeed during treatment with TABRECTA and for 1 week after the last dose.

8.3Females and Males of Reproductive Potential Based on animal data, TABRECTA can cause malformations at doses less than the human exposure based on AUC at the 400 mg twice daily clinical dose [see Use in Specific Populations (8.1)] . Pregnancy Testing Verify pregnancy status for females of reproductive potential prior to starting treatment with TABRECTA. Contraception Females Advise females of reproductive potential to use effective contraception during treatment with TABRECTA and for 1 week after the last dose.

Males Advise males with female partners of reproductive potential to use effective contraception during treatment with TABRECTA and for 1 week after the last dose.

8.4Pediatric Use Safety and effectiveness of TABRECTA in pediatric patients have not been established.

8.5Geriatric Use In GEOMETRY mono-1, 61% of the 373 patients were 65 years or older and 18% were 75 years or older. No overall differences in the safety or effectiveness were observed between these patients and younger patients.

8.6Renal Impairment No dosage adjustment is recommended in patients with mild (baseline creatinine clearance [CLcr] 60 to 89 mL/min by Cockcroft-Gault) or moderate renal impairment (CLcr 30 to 59 mL/min) [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3)] . TABRECTA has not been studied in patients with severe renal impairment (CLcr 15 to 29 mL/min).

12 CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY

12.1Mechanism of Action Capmatinib is a kinase inhibitor that targets MET, including the mutant variant produced by exon 14 skipping. MET exon 14 skipping results in a protein with a missing regulatory domain that reduces its negative regulation leading to increased downstream MET signaling. Capmatinib inhibited cancer cell growth driven by a mutant MET variant lacking exon 14 at clinically achievable concentrations and demonstrated anti-tumor activity in murine tumor xenograft models derived from human lung tumors with either a mutation leading to MET exon 14 skipping or MET amplification.

Capmatinib inhibited the phosphorylation of MET triggered by binding of hepatocyte growth factor or by MET amplification, as well as MET-mediated phosphorylation of downstream signaling proteins and proliferation and survival of MET-dependent cancer cells.

12.2Pharmacodynamics Exposure-Response Capmatinib exposure-response relationships and the time course of pharmacodynamics response are unknown. Cardiac Electrophysiology No large mean increase in QTc (i.e. > 20 ms) was detected following treatment with TABRECTA at the recommended dosage of 400 mg orally twice daily.

12.3Pharmacokinetics Capmatinib exposure (AUC 0-12h and C max ) increased approximately proportionally over a dose range of 200 mg (0.5 times the recommended dosage) to 400 mg. Capmatinib reached steady-state by day 3 following twice daily dosing, with a mean (% coefficient of variation [%CV]) accumulation ratio of 1.5 (41%). Absorption After administration of TABRECTA 400 mg orally in patients with cancer, capmatinib peak plasma concentrations (C max ) were reached in approximately 1 to 2 hours (T max ).

The absorption of capmatinib after oral administration is estimated to be greater than 70%. Effect of Food A high-fat meal (containing approximately 1000 calories and 50% fat) in healthy subjects increased capmatinib AUC 0-INF by 46% with no change in C max compared to under fasted conditions. A low-fat meal (containing approximately 300 calories and 20% fat) in healthy subjects had no clinically meaningful effect on capmatinib exposure.

When capmatinib was administered at 400 mg orally twice daily in cancer patients, exposure (AUC 0-12h ) was similar after administration of capmatinib with food and under fasted conditions. Distribution Capmatinib plasma protein binding is 96%, independent of capmatinib concentration. The apparent mean volume of distribution at steady-state is 164 L.

The blood-to-plasma ratio was 1.5, but decreased at higher concentrations to 0.9. Elimination The effective elimination half-life of capmatinib is 6.5 hours. The mean (%CV) steady-state apparent clearance of capmatinib is 24 L/hr (82%).

Metabolism Capmatinib is primarily metabolized by CYP3A4 and aldehyde oxidase. Excretion Following a single oral administration of radiolabeled-capmatinib to healthy subjects, 78% of the total radioactivity was recovered in feces with 42% as unchanged and 22% was recovered in urine with negligible as unchanged. Specific Populations No clinically significant effects on the pharmacokinetic parameters of capmatinib were identified for the following covariates assessed: age (26 to 90 years), sex, race (White, Asian, Native American, Black, unknown), body weight (35 to 131 kg), mild to moderate renal impairment (baseline CLcr 30 to 89 mL/min by Cockcroft-Gault) and mild, moderate or severe hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh classification).

The effect of severe renal impairment (baseline CLcr 15 to 29 mL/min) on capmatinib pharmacokinetics has not been studied. Drug Interaction Studies Clinical Studies and Model-Informed Approaches Strong CYP3A Inhibitors: Coadministration with itraconazole (a strong CYP3A inhibitor) increased capmatinib AUC 0-INF by 42% with no change in capmatinib C max . Strong CYP3A Inducers: Coadministration with rifampicin (a strong CYP3A inducer) decreased capmatinib AUC 0-INF by 67% and decreased C max by 56%.
