Efficacy and Tolerability are Vital for Your Patients1,2
Discover more of what Dr. Zhu has to say about treating patients with ALK+ mNSCLC.
First-line Systemic Efficacy
The efficacy, safety, and tolerability of ALUNBRIG® (brigatinib) was assessed in ALTA 1L, a phase 3, randomized (1:1), open-label, multicenter clinical trial1,2
- Study design: 275 adult patients with locally advanced or metastatic ALK+ mNSCLC with no prior ALK therapy and ≤1 regimen of prior systematic therapy1. Patients were randomized (1:1) to receive ALUNBRIG (n=137) or crizotinib (n=138).
- Select exclusion criteria: Patients with a history of interstitial lung disease, drug-related pneumonitis, or radiation pneumonitis
- Major efficacy outcome measure: PFS according to RECIST v1.1 as evaluated by a BIRC1
- ALUNBRIG doubled mPFS vs crizotinib: BIRC-assessed median PFS was 24.0 months (n=137; 95% CI: 18.5, NR) for ALUNBRIG vs 11.0 months (n=138; 95% CI: 9.2, 12.9) for crizotinib1
- Additional efficacy outcome measures: Confirmed ORR, DOR, intracranial ORR, and intracranial DOR as evaluated by BIRC1
In a post hoc subgroup analysis of patients with brain metastases at baseline, the median PFS was longer with ALUNBRIG vs crizotinib2,3
PFS in Patients With Any Brain Metastases at Baseline
23% absolute risk reduction: 50% event rate (n=20/40) for patients taking ALUNBRIG vs 73% event rate (n=30/41) for patients taking crizotinib1
Study Limitation: ALTA 1L was not powered to detect differences across subgroups.

A Well-Established Safety Profile
ALUNBRIG has demonstrated long-term tolerability in the ALTA 1L trial1
- 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%)
