ALK lung cancer: First sign of progression?
He has taken
Alectinib
for few months and the results has been great so far. However he just received result from his latest Xray and the comment the doctor wrote online was that he can see "some slightly prominent lymph nodes in the abdomen".

Anyone ALK positive?
That being said, they’ve said it’s ALK positive which means he’s now on a treatment called
Alectinib
. Just wondering how many of you are ALK positive and how you’re getting on? My dads currently squamous ALK positive which apparently is quite rare. Many thanks, Annie

Clinical and analytical validation of FoundationOne Liquid CDx . . . genomic profiling assay for cancers of solid tumor origin - 09/25/2020
For example, the clinical utility for the selection of patients for therapy with
alectinib
using an early version of the Foundation Medicine liquid biopsy assay has also been demonstrated in a prospective clinical study described in the Blood First Assay Screening Trial (BFAST) [31].

ALK positive - Alectinib or Crizotinib?
If we start on Crizotinib, does this mean that we cannot try
Alectinib
? I only ask because the NICE guidance seems to indicate that
Alectinib
can only be used for first line treatment. Thanks in advance for your help! :)

Alectinib
or ceritinib as the first ALK tyrosine

We are wondering if this is going to a continual on - off cycle going forward due to the effect on her heart rate that
alectinib

Rejection of Alectinib 1st line
Alectinib
as 1st line treatment!!!! Crazy decision as it crosses the BBB whereas Crixotinib rarely does, has fewer adverse side effects allowing people to continue a completely normal life. This drug is for people who are ALK + and tend to be below the age of 50.

ALK+ NSCLC
I currently am taking
Alectinib
along with an immunotherapy called Atezolizumab. My tumors have been stable since January of 2016. At my last PET scan in June, the only tumor that is still active is one in my liver. I go for a biopsy next week.
