What the film says

Read the transcript

This trial is for adults with ALK positive lung cancer that has spread to the brain, with few or no symptoms, who have not been treated yet.

The idea: alectinib is a twice daily pill that targets ALK and can reach the brain. The question is whether brain radiation can wait. In the phase 2 part, one group takes alectinib alone, and another gets stereotactic radiosurgery, a focused high dose of radiation, plus alectinib.

This phase 1 and 2 study plans 56 patients. At Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center in Columbus, Joshua Palmer leads it.
