Therapy Description |
Ensacove (ensartinib) is a small molecule inhibitor of ALK, which inhibits downstream signaling and potentially leads to decreased growth of ALK-expressing tumors (PMID: 21613408, PMID: 31628085). Ensacove (ensartinib) is FDA-approved for use in adult patients with ALK-positive locally advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer who have not previously received an ALK-inhibitor (FDA.gov). |
