LORVIQUA in second-line and later treatment of ALK+ advanced NSCLC1
  • LORVIQUA was evaluated as a second-line or later treatment option. The study was a single-arm, multicentre, phase 1/2 study of 100 mg LORVIQUA in previously treated patients with ALK+ advanced NSCLC1,2
  • The study included several cohorts, of which EXP3B, EXP4, and EXP5 are covered by the LORVIQUA indication1
  • Brain metastases were well represented across cohorts1:
    • EXP3B 46% (n=13); EXP4–5 75% (n=83)
