ALK Inhibitor Plus Vinblasitine for Refractory/Relapsed Pediatric ALK+ Anaplastic Large Cell Lymphoma: A Prospective, One-Arm, Open-Label Real-World Study

Published date:
11/04/2021
Excerpt:
To assess the efficacy and safety of ALK inhibitors combined with VBL in pediatric relapsed/refractory (r/r) ALK+ ALCL....ALK inhibitors included crizotinib(CZ), alectinib(AL) and ceritinib(CER)....After 1st cycle of treatments, 62.9%(17/26) achieved comlpele remission(CR) without measurable tumors and ALK gene transcription, no progressed cases.... ALK inhibitors combined with VBL may rapidly induce the tumor remission of r/r ALK+ALCL and the tolerance is good.

Safety and activity of crizotinib for paediatric patients with refractory solid tumours or anaplastic large-cell lymphoma: a Children's Oncology Group phase 1 consortium study

Excerpt:
...antitumour activity of crizotinib in children with refractory solid tumours and anaplastic large-cell lymphoma. Objective tumour responses were documented in 14 of 79 patients (nine complete responses, five partial responses); and the anti-tumour activity was enriched in patients with known activating ALK aberrations (eight of nine with anaplastic large-cell lymphoma, one of 11 with neuroblastoma, three of seven with inflammatory myofibroblastic tumour, and one of two with NSCLC).

settings Open AccessArticle Synergistic Drug Combinations Prevent Resistance in ALK+ Anaplastic Large Cell Lymphoma

Published date:

Excerpt:
Finally, to further validate the potentialities of this combined approach, we sought an in vivo proof of concept, employing a xenograft model of ALK+ ALCL. Combined therapy with crizotinib+decitabine or crizotinib+trametinib resulted in a significantly higher inhibition of tumor growth compared to single treatments, while tumors treated with crizotinib+CHO showed a trend toward better inhibition compared to single drugs.
