Background: Brigatinib is a next-generation ALK tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) with differential activity by dose (90 mg vs 180 mg [with a 7-day lead-in at 90 mg] qd) in the phase 2 post-crizotinib ALTA trial (NCT02094573). Herein, we describe results from population PK and exposure-response analyses of the efficacy and safety of brigatinib 180 mg qd (with a 7-day lead-in at 90 mg) from data in the first-line phase 3 ALTA-1L study (NCT02737501)... Conclusions: These results support a favorable benefit/risk profile of the proposed 180 mg qd brigatinib dose (with a 7-day lead-in at 90 mg) for the front-line treatment of patients with ALK+ NSCLC. Clinical trial information: NCT02737501. READ ARTICLE
