Gene ALK
Variant amp
Impact List none
Protein Effect no effect
Gene Variant Descriptions ALK amplification indicates an increased number of copies of the ALK gene. However, the mechanism causing the increase is unspecified.
Associated Drug Resistance
Category Variants Paths

Filtering

  • Case insensitive filtering will display rows if any text in any cell matches the filter term
  • Use simple literal full or partial string matches
  • Separate multiple filter terms with a space. Any order may be used (i. e. a b c and c b a are equivalent )
  • Filtering will only apply to rows that are already loaded on the page. Filtering has no impact on query parameters.
  • Use quotes to match on a longer phrase with spaces (i.e. "mtor c1483f")

Sorting

  • Generally, the default sort order for tables is set to be first column ascending; however, specific tables may set a different default sort order.
  • Click on any column header arrows to sort by that column
  • Hold down the Shift key and click multiple columns to sort by more than one column. Be sure to set ascending or descending order for a given column before moving on to the next column.

Molecular Profile Indication/Tumor Type Response Type Therapy Name Approval Status Evidence Type Efficacy Evidence References
ALK amp neuroblastoma no benefit Crizotinib Case Reports/Case Series Actionable In a Phase I/II trial (ADVL0912), Xalkori (crizotinib) treatment resulted in an objective response of 15% (3/20) in pediatric patients with relapsed/refractory neuroblastoma harboring ALK activating mutations or amplifications, although both patients harboring ALK amplification had disease progression after only 1 cycle of treatment (PMID: 33568345; NCT00939770). 33568345
ALK amp neuroblastoma no benefit Crizotinib Preclinical - Cell culture Actionable In a preclinical study, Xalkori (crizotinib) was less efficient than Lorlatinib (PF-06463922) to induced growth inhibition in ALK-amplified neuroblastoma cells in culture (PMID: 26554404). 26554404
ALK amp neuroblastoma sensitive Lorlatinib Preclinical - Cell culture Actionable In a preclinical study, Lorbrena (lorlatinib) inhibited growth of ALK-amplified neuroblastoma cells in culture (PMID: 26554404). 26554404
ALK amp neuroblastoma sensitive Lorlatinib Preclinical - Pdx & cell culture Actionable In a preclinical study, Lorbrena (lorlatinib) inhibited viability of a panel of ALK-amplified neuroblastoma cell lines in culture, and inhibited tumor growth in a patient-derived xenograft (PDX) model (PMID: 36602782). 36602782
ALK amp lung non-small cell carcinoma no benefit Belizatinib Phase I Actionable In a Phase I trial, treatment with Belizatinib (TSR-011) in ALK inhibitor-naive non-small cell lung cancer patients (n=14) harboring either an ALK mutation, ALK amplification, or an ALK rearrangement resulted in a partial response in 6 patients and stable disease in 8 patients, however, it was determined that the drug resulted in limited efficacy and development of the drug was discontinued (PMID: 31217479; NCT02048488). 31217479
ALK amp neuroblastoma predicted - sensitive Ensartinib Preclinical - Cell culture Actionable In a preclinical study, Ensartinib (X-396) treatment resulted in inhibition of cell proliferation in a neuroblastoma cell line harboring ALK amplification in culture (PMID: 34482287). 34482287
ALK amp neuroblastoma sensitive CEP-28122 Preclinical - Cell culture Actionable In a preclinical study, CEP-28122 inhibited growth of ALK-amplified neuroblastoma cells in culture (PMID: 22203728). 22203728
ALK amp neuroblastoma predicted - sensitive Repotrectinib Preclinical - Cell culture Actionable In a preclinical study, Augtyro (repotrectinib) treatment resulted in inhibition of cell proliferation in a neuroblastoma cell line harboring ALK amplification in culture (PMID: 34482287). 34482287
ALK amp neuroblastoma predicted - sensitive NVL-655 Preclinical - Cell culture Actionable In a preclinical study, NUV-655 inhibited proliferation of neuroblastoma cell lines with ALK amplification in culture (Cancer Res (2022) 82 (12_Supplement): 3337). detail...
ALK amp neuroblastoma no benefit Cyclophosphamide + Doxorubicin + Lorlatinib + Vincristine Sulfate Preclinical - Pdx Actionable In a preclinical study, addition of Cytoxan (cyclophosphamide), Adriamycin (doxorubicin), and Oncovin (vincristine) to Lorbrena (lorlatinib) did not improve tumor growth inhibition in a patient-derived xenograft (PDX) model of neuroblastoma with ALK amplification and overexpression (PMID: 36602782). 36602782
