Progression-Free and Overall Survival in ALK-Positive NSCLC Patients Treated with Sequential Crizotinib and Ceritinib.
PURPOSE Anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) rearrangements are important therapeutic targets in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that confer sensitivity to the ALK inhibitors crizotinib and ceritinib. To determine the outcome of sequential treatment with crizotinb and ceritinib, we retrospectively evaluated a cohort of ALK-positive patients treated with both agents. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN We iden...
متن کاملPersonalized treatment options for ALK-positive metastatic non-small-cell lung cancer: potential role for Ceritinib
The fusion of echinoderm microtubule-associated protein-like 4 with the anaplastic lymphoma kinase (EML4-ALK) is found in 3%-7% of non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cases and confers sensitivity to crizotinib, the first United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved ALK inhibitor drug. Although crizotinib has an excellent initial therapeutic effect, acquired resistance to this drug ...
متن کاملSpotlight on ceritinib in the treatment of ALK+ NSCLC: design, development and place in therapy
The identification of echinoderm microtubule-associated protein-like 4 (EML4) and anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) fusion gene in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) has radically changed the treatment of a subset of patients harboring this oncogenic driver. Crizotinib was the first ALK tyrosine kinase inhibitor to receive fast approval and is currently indicated as the first-line therapy for ad...
متن کاملGenetic Variants of the MDM2 Gene Are Predictive of Treatment-Related Toxicities and Overall Survival in Patients With Advanced NSCLC.
INTRODUCTION Platinum agents can cause the formation of DNA adducts and induce apoptosis to eliminate tumor cells. The aim of the present study was to investigate the influence of genetic variants of MDM2 on chemotherapy-related toxicities and clinical outcomes in patients with advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). MATERIALS AND METHODS We recruited 663 patients with advanced NSCLC who...
متن کاملCeritinib for ALK-Rearrangement–Positive Non–Small Cell Lung Cancer
Authors' disclosures of potential conflicts of interest are found at the end of this article. A ccording to the American Cancer Society (ACS), lung cancer is the second most common diagnosis in the world and is the leading cause of death from malignancy in both men and women (ACS, 2014). Lung cancer accounts for 13% of new diagnoses and 27% of deaths from malig-nancy. The ACS (2014) estimated t...
