Your Patients May Want More Than Efficacy1-3

""

With quantity of life increasing in ALK+ mNSCLC, quality of life is increasingly important1-3

  • Patients are being diagnosed younger (median age 51 years old) and staying on treatment longer4
  • Median overall survival for Stage IV ALK+ mNSCLC is 6.75 years3
  • More time on therapy increases the importance of efficacy in the brain, a reduced pill burden, and long term tolerability1,3,5,6

Which of these other considerations is a top priority for you?

Step 1 of 2
Category 1, Preferred NCCN Recommendation.

National Comprehensive Cancer Network® (NCCN®): recommends brigatinib as a Category 1, preferred first-line treatment option for ALK+ metastatic NSCLC7,a,b,c 

ALUNBRIG® (brigatinib) has demonstrated long-term tolerability in the ALTA 1L trial8,9

The efficacy and safety of ALUNBRIG was studied in ALTA 1L, a Phase 3, randomized, open-label, multicenter clinical trial in adult patients (N=275) with advanced ALK+ mNSCLC who had not previously received an ALK-targeted therapy. Patients were randomized (1:1) to receive ALUNBRIG (n=137) or crizotinib (n=138). The major efficacy outcome measure was progression free survival according to RECIST v1.1 as evaluated by a blinded independent review committee (BIRC).

  • Median follow-up in the ALUNBRIG arm was 40.4 months
  • Median duration of treatment with ALUNBRIG was 24.3 months
  • Median relative dose intensity with ALUNBRIG was 97%
  • The most common serious adverse reactions were pneumonia (4.4%), ILD/pneumonitis (3.7%), pyrexia (2.9%), dyspnea (2.2%), pulmonary embolism (2.2%), and asthenia (2.2%). Fatal adverse reactions occurred in 2.9% of patients and included pneumonia (1.5%), cerebrovascular accident (0.7%), and multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (0.7%)
