After platinum chemotherapy and immunotherapy for KRAS G12C-mutated NSCLC, does sotorasib improve progression-free survival over docetaxel?

Registry: NCT04303780 · Evidence reviewed 9 November 2026 · Aliases and follow-up publications consolidated.

Phase III open-label randomized; n=345.Primary-source evidence summary

Study design, population and eligibility

Design and sample

Phase III open-label randomized; n=345.

Population

KRAS G12C advanced NSCLC after platinum chemotherapy and PD-(L)1 inhibitor.

Treatment and comparator

Intervention: Sotorasib 960 mg daily.

Comparator: Docetaxel 75 mg/m² q3 weeks.

Endpoints

PFS by BICR primary.

Key efficacy and clinical outcomes

Median PFS 5.6 vs 4.5 mo (HR 0.66); ORR 28.1% vs 13.2%; OS 10.6 vs 11.3 mo (HR 1.01), no OS benefit.

Median survival and hazard ratios are not fixed-time event risks; NNT is not inferred from them.

Toxicity and treatment burden

Diarrhoea, nausea and hepatotoxicity; docetaxel causes myelosuppression/neuropathy.

Absolute effect and NNT/NNH

PFS improved; OS did not. Post-platinum/post-immunotherapy setting only.

NNT/NNH is not calculated unless a directly reported, comparable fixed-time risk difference supports it. Median survival and hazard ratios alone do not provide an NNT.

Critical interpretation and limitations

PFS improved; OS did not. Post-platinum/post-immunotherapy setting only.

Current-practice context

Review date: 9 November 2026. Primary publication and selected follow-up sources were reviewed. Full disease-specific guideline, regulatory-label and sequencing audit remains pending; verify current local recommendations and biomarker eligibility before clinical application.
