Anaplastic lymphoma kinase Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (ALK-NSCLC): Disease Understanding and Treatment Algorithm
Anaplastic lymphoma kinase Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Overview
Lung cancer mainly begins in the lungs, and it may spread to lymph nodes or other organs in the body, such as the brain. However, cancer from other organs may also spread to the lungs. When cancer cells spread from one organ to another, they are called metastases.

There are mainly two types of lung cancer small cell lung cancer (SCLC) and non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). NSCLC can be defined as any type of epithelial lung cancer other than SCLC. It is mainly subcategorized into adenocarcinomas, squamous cell carcinomas, large cell carcinomas and several other types that occur less frequently include adenosquamous carcinomas, and sarcomatoid carcinomas. In these subtypes adenocarcinoma accounts for highest number of cases, i.e., approximately 47% followed by Squamous Cell Carcinoma and Large Cell Carcinoma.

There are several genetic mutations identified to play a major role in the progression of this indication. Mutations in EGFR, KRAS, and ALK are mutually exclusive in patients with NSCLC, and the presence of one mutation instead of another can influence response to targeted therapy. Among those most common are EGFR, KRAS, ROS-1, BRAF, C-Met, PD-L1 expression and others. Amongst all the mutations ALK mutation accounted for approximately 4% of the total cases of NSCLC.
ALK-positive mutation was discovered in 2007. ALK-positive lung cancers harbor a gene rearrangement referred to as the EML4-ALK fusion gene, compose a subset of tumors for which medical treatment has expanded rapidly (along with survival) in the past few years.

Anaplastic lymphoma kinase Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Diagnosis
An ALK mutation is diagnosed by molecular profiling of a sample of the tumor. It’s important in doing this testing that an adequate supply of tissue from either a lung biopsy or lung cancer surgery is obtained. Researchers are also looking at ways to determine if an ALK mutation is present before genetic testing is done, or could substitute for genetic testing.

Anaplastic lymphoma kinase Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Treatment
There are several treatment options available to treat this condition in the seven major markets. Typically, chemotherapy, targeted treatments, and immunotherapy?alone or in combination?are used to treat lung cancer. Besides, pharmacological treatment choices, surgery, and radiation are also frequently opted. When the patient is in the initial stages, the tumor is usually resectable. Most stage I and stage II NSCLC are treated with surgery to remove the tumor. To recommend a treatment option to a patient of NSCLC, several key factors are taken into consideration, such age of the patient, previous medical history, health status, and smoking history. Along with those, another essential factor to consider is the stage of cancer at the time of diagnosis. Staging is usually carried out twice: after clinical and radiological examinations; and after surgery, in the case of the surgically resected tumor. There are several therapies approved under this category, such as Alunbrig (Brigatinib), Zykadia (Ceritinib), Xalkori (Crizotinib), and Alectinib. Apart from this, Lorbrena (Lorlatinib) is another therapy available for the ALK-positive NSCLC patient pool.

Anaplastic lymphoma kinase Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Marketed Drugs

Xalkori (Crizotinib): Pfizer
Xalkori (Crizotinib), an ALK inhibitor, was first-ever approved treatment for metastatic NSCLC by the US FDA. This product received accelerated approval in 2011. The US FDA approval of Xalkori is based on data from 255 patients with locally advanced or metastatic ALK-positive NSCLC across two multicenter, single-arm studies, including a Phase II study (PROFILE 1005) and a Part 2 expansion cohort of a Phase I study (Study 1001).

Alunbrig (Brigatinib): Takeda
Alunbrig (Brigatinib) was approved by the US FDA in April 2017 for the treatment of patients with ALK+ metastatic NSCLC who have progressed on or are intolerant to Crizotinib. In the year 2018, the European Commission (EC) also granted marketing authorization for Alunbrig as a monotherapy for the treatment of adult patients with ALK+ NSCLC previously treated with Crizotinib. In April 2020, the European Commission (EC) extended the current marketing authorization of Alunbrig to include use as a monotherapy for the treatment of adult patients with ALK+ advanced NSCLC previously not treated with an ALK inhibitor. This decision came after a positive opinion from the CHMP on February 27, 2020.

Anaplastic lymphoma kinase Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Emerging Drugs

Ensartinib: Xcovery Holding Company
Xcovery is investigating their drug candidate, Ensartinib which is a potential best-in-class oral compound for the first-line treatment of ALK–positive NSCLC. This product has additional activity against MET, ABL, Axl, EPHA2, LTK, ROS1, and SLK. In phase I/II clinical trial, this product has shown promising activity in both ALK TKI na?ve and crizotinib-resistant ALK+ NSCLC patients. Ensartinib is generally well tolerated with the most common toxicities being rash and nausea/vomiting, the latter often resolved with food.

At present, a global Phase III clinical trial (eXalt3) is ongoing comparing Ensartinib to Crizotinib in TKI na?ve ALK-positive NSCLC patient. The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ensartinib vs. crizotinib in patients with ALK-positive NSCLC that have received up to one prior chemotherapy regimen and no prior ALK inhibitor.

Anaplastic lymphoma kinase Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Drugs Uptake
The current market is dominated by Alecensa (alectinib) which is expected to generate its peak revenue in coming years, and after that its revenue is expected to decline. This decline is a majorly attributed due to the presence of Lorbrena (because it is targeting the patient pool which is refractory to Crizotinib, Alectinib, and Ceritinib.

Access and Reimbursement Scenario in Anaplastic lymphoma kinase Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Therapies

  • In 2018, Alecensa was recommended, within its marketing authorization, for untreated patients with NSCLC, whose tumors are identified as ALK-positive. Alecensa demonstrated considerable improvements in delaying cancer growth in enrolled patients. It has also shown significant improvements in preventing and delaying cancer spread into the brain.
  • This decision was entirely based on data from the Phase III ALEX study, which showed a reduction in the risk of disease worsening, or death by 57% compared with standard of care Xalkori.
