Abstract

Objective: The aims of our study were to access clinical characteristics and investigate response rate and related factors of tyrosine kinase in ALK gene mutation advanced NSCLC. Patients and Methods: Describe a series of cases 26 advanced non-small cell lung cancer patients with ALK gene mutations, treated with tyrosine kinase inhibitor – Alectinib, from January 2019 to March 2023. Tumor response rate, other related factors were determined. Results: Mean age 52±14; common in women (65.4%); The majority (76.9%) of patients do not smoke. Poor overall health index PS ≥ 2 accounts for 26.9%. Metastasis from 3 or more organs accounts for a high rate of 34.6%. Brain metastasis occurs at a high rate of 38.5%. NGS testing identified ALK gene mutations in 50%, Immunohistochemistry staining in 23.1% and FISH in 26.9%. Treatment response: Complete response rate 0%, partial response 92.3%. The disease control rate is 100%. Response to metastatic lesions of the central nervous system is highly effective at 80%. Conclusion: Patients with ALK gene mutations advanced non-small cell lung cancer are common at young age, more common in women than men, and are prefer to non-smokers. Brain metastases occur at a high rate and often metastasize to multiple organs. Treatment with the 2nd generation TKI - Alectinib has a high response rate, especially with metastatic lesions of the central nervous system.
