What does it do?

Sotorasib is a molecular targeted therapy used as an antineoplastic agent. It primarily targets cancer cells with specific genetic mutations to demonstrate therapeutic effects. This component is used to block the abnormal signaling of cancer cells.

Sotorasib binds to specific mutated proteins within cancer cells to block that signaling pathway. By doing so, it interferes with the processes that allow cancer cells to proliferate and survive, thereby delaying or stopping the progression of cancer.
