Treatment Strategy of Lung Adenocarcinoma with Concomitant EGFR Mutation and ALK Rearrangement

The incidence of synchronous mutations of Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and anaplastic large-cell lymphoma kinase (ALK) rearrangements in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) was low. Now clinical experience is still insufficient. Simultaneously the treatment of brain metastasis hemorrhage in the acute phase with lung cancer is still controversial. We described the clinical treatment strategy of a patient with synchronous mutations of EGFR and ALK.We found that the tumor was well controlled. Progression-free survival (PFS)1 was 4 months, PFS2 was 3 months, PFS3 was 5 months, PFS4 was 5 months, and PFS5 was 9 months. At present, the patient still maintains partial response (PR) status.
