Greetings all, I was diagnosed with NSCLC(ALK FPos)S4, back in May18. Been on Alectinib since. By the early part of January this year, metastisis was confirmed in my liver. Drug went under review, currently on my first cycle of Lorlatinib.

Requesting feedback from anyone out there currently taking this medication?

Kind regards.

That’s brill. Hope that you have joined both sites. As U.K. one good for what’s happening here and Worldwide one for research. Am ok thanks, but started with Brigatinib a few weeks ago and having a few teething problems x
