This comparative study of the potential binding effects of fourth-generation inhibitors TPX-0131 and repotrectinib and third-generation inhibitor LOR for ALK F1174C/L/V mutations revealed the atomistic insights of the binding mechanism. These computational findings enable us to carry out further research for the clinical implementation of fourth-generation ALK inhibitors on ALK-positive NSCLC.
After alectinib failure, G1202R and I1171N mutations were detected in 7 of 15 specimens. G1202R, F1174V and G1202R, and P-gp overexpression were observed in 3 of 7 samples after ceritinib treatment. L1196M + G1202R, a compound mutation, was detected in 1 specimen after lorlatinib treatment...In conclusion, resistance to ALK-TKIs based on secondary mutation in this study was similar to that in previous reports, except for crizotinib resistance. The appropriate treatment matching resistance mechanisms contributes to the efficacy of multiple ALK-TKI treatment strategies.
