About This Medication

# Amgen SupportPlus Co-Pay Program Patient Guide: How to Get LUMAKRAS at Low or No Cost ## About LUMAKRAS (Sotorasib) LUMAKRAS is a prescription medication used to treat adults with a specific type of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that has a KRAS G12C gene mutation. Your doctor may prescribe LUMAKRAS if your cancer is locally advanced or has spread to other parts of your body (metastatic disease) and you have already tried at least one other chemotherapy treatment. LUMAKRAS works by targeting the specific genetic mutation in your cancer cells to help slow or stop cancer growth. ## Who Qualifies for Financial Assistance Amgen SupportPlus offers financial support to patients taking LUMAKRAS regardless of your current financial situation or insurance status.
