Abstract Text

Non-small cell lung cancers (NSCLC) harboring anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) gene rearrangements invariably develop resistance to the ALK tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) crizotinib. Herein, we report the first preclinical evaluation of the next-generation ALK TKI, ceritinib (LDK378), in the setting of crizotinib resistance. An interrogation of in vitro and in vivo models of acquired resistance to crizotinib, including cell lines established from biopsies of patients with crizotinib-resistant NSCLC, revealed that ceritinib potently overcomes crizotinib-resistant mutations. In particular, ceritinib effectively inhibits ALK harboring L1196M, G1269A, I1171T, and S1206Y mutations, and a cocrystal structure of ceritinib bound to ALK provides structural bases for this increased potency. However, we observed that ceritinib did not overcome two crizotinib-resistant ALK mutations, G1202R and F1174C, and one of these mutations was identified in 5 of 11 biopsies from patients with acquired resistance to ceritinib. Altogether, our results demonstrate that ceritinib can overcome crizotinib resistance, consistent with clinical data showing marked efficacy of ceritinib in patients with crizotinib-resistant disease.The second-generation ALK inhibitor ceritinib can overcome several crizotinib-resistant mutations and is potent against several in vitro and in vivo laboratory models of acquired resistance to crizotinib. These findings provide the molecular basis for the marked clinical activity of ceritinib in patients with ALK-positive NSCLC with crizotinib-resistant disease.

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.

Gene	Variant	Impact	Protein Effect	Variant Description	Associated with drug Resistance
ALK	L1152P	missense	unknown	ALK L1152P lies within the protein kinase domain of the Alk protein (UniProt.org). L1152P has been demonstrated to confer drug resistance in the context of ALK rearrangement in culture (PMID: 24675041), but has not been biochemically characterized and therefore, its effect on Alk protein function is unknown (PubMed, Apr 2025).	Y
ALK	F1174V	missense	gain of function - predicted	ALK F1174V lies within the protein kinase domain of the Alk protein (UniProt.org). F1174V results in constitutive activation of the Alk protein in cell culture (PMID: 21242967) and has been demonstrated to occur as a secondary resistance mutation in the context of ALK fusions (PMID: 24675041), and therefore, is predicted to lead to a gain of Alk protein function.	Y
ALK	S1206Y	missense	unknown	ALK S1206Y lies within the protein kinase domain of the Alk protein (UniProt.org). S1206Y has been demonstrated to occur as a secondary drug resistance mutation in the context of ALK rearrangements (PMID: 22277784, PMID: 24675041, PMID: 25727400), but has not been biochemically characterized and therefore, its effect on Alk protein function is unknown (PubMed, Aug 2024).
