Afatinib | Gilotrif | BIBW 2992|Giotrif | EGFR Inhibitor (Pan) 62 EGFR Inhibitor 2nd gen 5 HER inhibitor (Pan) 6 | Gilotrif (afatinib) is a second-generation pan-Egfr inhibitor with activity against EGFR T790M and EGFR exon 19 and 21 deletions, and also inhibits ERBB2 (HER2), ERBB3 (HER3), ERBB4 (HER4) (PMID: 24435321, PMID: 25505694). Gilotrif (afatinib) is FDA approved for use in non-small cell lung cancer patients harboring non-resistant EGFR mutations, including exon 19 deletions, L858R, S768I, G719X, and L861Q, and for patients with metastatic squamous NSCLC (FDA.gov). |
Crizotinib | Xalkori | PF-02341066 | ALK Inhibitor 32 BCR-ABL Inhibitor 32 MET Inhibitor 59 RON Inhibitor 11 ROS1 Inhibitor 20 | Xalkori (crizotinib) inhibits ALK kinase, ALK fusion proteins, c-Met, ROS1 fusion proteins, and MST1R (RON), resulting in growth inhibition of tumor cells (PMID: 26951079, PMID: 22617245). Xalkori (crizotinib) is FDA approved for use in patients with ALK- or ROS1-positive (rearrangements and fusions) metastatic non-small cell lung cancer, in pediatric patients 1 year and older and young adults with relapsed or refractory, ALK-positive systemic anaplastic large cell lymphoma, and in adult and pediatric patients 1 year and older with ALK-positive, unresectable, recurrent, or refractory inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor (FDA.gov). |

EML4 - ALK | lung non-small cell carcinoma | sensitive | Afatinib + Crizotinib | Preclinical - Cell culture | Actionable | In a preclinical study, treatment with the combination of Gilotrif (afatinib) and Xalkori (crizotinib) increased inhibition of downstream signaling, viability, and residual colony formation in a non-small cell lung cancer cell line harboring EML4-ALK compared to Xalkori (crizotinib) treatment alone in culture (PMID: 37748191). | 37748191 |
EML4 - ALK ALK C1156Y ALK I1171T ALK L1198F | lung non-small cell carcinoma | sensitive | Afatinib + Crizotinib | Preclinical - Cell culture | Actionable | In a preclinical study, treatment with the combination of Gilotrif (afatinib) and Xalkori (crizotinib) further inhibited viability of a patient-derived non-small cell lung cancer cell line harboring EML4-ALK (e6:e19) with ALK C1156Y, I1171T, and L1198F compared to Xalkori (crizotinib) alone in culture (PMID: 37748191). | 37748191 |
