Brigatinib Versus Crizotinib in Advanced ALK Inhibitor-Naive ALK-Positive Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer: Second Interim Analysis of the Phase III ALTA-1L Trial

"With median follow-up of 24.9 months for brigatinib (150 PFS events), brigatinib showed consistent superiority in BIRC-assessed PFS versus crizotinib (hazard ratio [HR], 0.49 [95% CI, 0.35 to 0.68]; log-rank P < .0001; median, 24.0 v 11.0 months). Investigator-assessed PFS HR was 0.43 (95% CI, 0.31 to 0.61; median, 29.4 v 9.2 months). No new safety concerns emerged. Brigatinib represents a once-daily ALK inhibitor with superior efficacy, tolerability, and QoL over crizotinib, making it a promising first-line treatment of ALK-positive NSCLC." READ ARTICLE

Population pharmacokinetic (PK) and exposure-response analyses from the pivotal ALTA-1L study: Model-based analyses supporting the brigatinib dose...

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

Conclusions: These real-life results confirmed lorlatinib as a major treatment option for patients with advanced refractory ALK or ROS1+ NSCLC

Background: Efficacy of ALK TKIs in patients (pts) with ALK+ non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) varies. We evaluated the impact of EML4-ALK fusion variants and other baseline (BL) molecular and clinical variables on clinical efficacy of brigatinib (BRG) vs crizotinib (CRZ) as first ALK TKI therapy in pts with ALK+ NSCLC in the phase 3 ALTA-1L (NCT02737501) trial... Conclusions: EML4-ALK fusion variant 3 and TP53 mutation were identified as poor prognosis biomarkers in ALK+ NSCLC. BRG demonstrated better efficacy than CRZ as first-line therapy in pts regardless of EML4-ALK fusion variant and TP53 mutation status. These findings may help define areas of greatest unmet need.

Exploratory Analysis of Brigatinib Activity in Patients With Anaplastic Lymphoma Kinase-Positive Non–Small Cell Lung Cancer and Brain Metastases in Two Clinical Trials

Brigatinib, a next-generation anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) inhibitor, demonstrated superior progression-free survival (PFS) and improved health-related quality of life (QoL) versus crizotinib in advanced ALK inhibitor–naive ALK-positive non–small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) at first interim analysis (99 events; median brigatinib follow-up, 11.0 months) in the open-label, phase III ALTA-1L trial (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT02737501). We report results of the second prespecified interim analysis (150 events). Brigatinib represents a once-daily ALK inhibitor with superior efficacy, tolerability, and QoL over crizotinib, making it a promising first-line treatment of ALK-positive NSCLC. READ ARTICLE
