On May 7, 2020, the FDA approved Tabrecta (capmatinib) for the treatment of adult patients with non-small cell lung cancer that has spread to other parts of the body. Tabrecta is the first FDA-approved therapy to treat NSCLC with specific mutations (those that lead to mesenchymal-epithelial transition or MET exon 14 skipping).

The FDA granted approval of Tabrecta to Novartis Pharmaceuticals. The approval of the F1CDx companion diagnostic was granted to Foundation Medicine.
