Abstract

Neurocognitive adverse events (NAEs) have been reported in up to 60% of patients on lorlatinib, a potent central nervous system–active ALK inhibitor. Manifestations may include psychotic, mood, speech, and cognitive symptoms. Current guidance recommends permanent discontinuation of lorlatinib in cases of grade IV NAEs. Here, we report a case of successful rechallenge of dose-reduced lorlatinib after recovery of grade IV psychosis in a patient with ALK-positive NSCLC.
