ALK+ Clinical Trials

Clinical trials can be one way to explore additional treatment options for ALK-positive cancer. For some patients, they may provide access to new therapies that are not yet widely available.

This page is designed to help patients, care partners, and clinicians easily identify a selection of clinical trials that are currently recruiting patients and may be worth discussing with your oncologist/ patient.

If a trial stands out to you, you can:

  • Talk with your care team about whether it may be a fit
  • Contact a trial site directly to learn more
  • Ask about pre-screening to see if you may be eligible

Not sure where to start?
Start by browsing the trials below, or use the ALK Clinical Trial Finder to search for ALK-positive inclusive trials based on your location and treatment history.
