Alectinib as first-line treatment for advanced ALK-positive non-small cell lung cancer in the real-world setting: preliminary analysis in a Chinese cohort

Abstract: Background: Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) have been a major advance in the treatment of anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK)-positive non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) which have been substantiated in clinical trials. However, real-world data on first-line alectinib in a Chinese patient population are limited. Methods:We enrolled patients diagnosed with advanced ALK-positive NSCLC treated with first-line alectinib at 8 centers in China, including cases with symptomatic or active CNS metastases.

“…This could potentially be attributable to limited follow-up duration or patient crossover to a second-generation TKI post-crizotinib progression. In terms of intracranial efficacy, the intracranial ORR with alectinib in the present study was 92.3%, which was in consistency with a national multicentre retrospective study (23). It reduced the risk of CNS progression by 83% relative to crizotinib in the present study.…”
