naplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) rearrangements are drivers of a subset of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The rapid progression of ALK inhibitors has significantly prolonged the progression-free survival of patients with ALK gene-sensitive mutations. However, the response of patients with rare ALK rearrangements to tyrosine kinase inhibitors remains unknown. Here, we report a rare case of striatin (STRN)-ALK-positive NSCLC showing primary resistance to first-line therapy alectinib and limited clinical activity of crizotinib in the alectinib-resistant setting.
