Abstract
Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related death worldwide. Therefore, improving the lung cancer treatment trajectory is crucial. In metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) the development of oncogene directed therapy has improved survival significantly. In approximately 5% of all NSCLCs the ALK translocation is detected. The standard treatment for metastatic ALK-positive (ALK+) NSCLC is ALK-inhibitors. This treatment is effective, well-tolerated, and several ALK-directed drugs are available for clinical use.
