The genomic fusions of the anaplastic lymphoma kinase () gene have been widely recognized as effective therapeutic targets for non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC). The Second Xiangya Hospital of Central South University has treated 2 NSCLC patients with 2 distinct novel gene fusions. Case 1 was a 55-year-old male with a solid nodule located in the right hilar lobe on enhanced CT scan.

Extracellular vesicle (EV) monitoring can complement clinical assessment of cancer response. In this study, patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) undergoing osimertinib, alectinib, pembrolizumab or platinum-based chemotherapy ± pembrolizumab were enrolled. EVs were characterized using Bradford assay to quantify the circulating cell-free EV protein content (cfEV), and dynamic light scattering to assess Rayleigh ratio excess at 90°, z-averaged hydrodynamic diameter and polydispersity index.

Background: Anaplastic lymphoma kinase () rearrangement, the most common oncogenic rearrangement in lung adenocarcinoma, occurs in approximately 5% of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients. gene is the most common partner of rearrangement, and distinct EML4-ALK fusions differ in their responsiveness to ALK tyrosine kinase inhibitors. However, the concurrence of two rearrangements in one patient and whose response to ALK-TKIs have rarely been reported so far.

Background: Anaplastic Lymphoma Kinase (ALK) rearrangement is a rare alteration in differentiated thyroid carcinomas (DTCs). Due to its low prevalence, a few evidence are available about the use of ALK inhibitors in advanced DTCs.
Methods: We report the case of a striatin (STRN) - ALK translocated advanced thyroid carcinoma.

Neuroendocrine tumor (NET) is a deadly malignancy disease that can be found anywhere in the body. The lack of tumor-specific treatment led to the worse prognosis of NET. Anaplastic lymphoma kinase-tyrosine kinase inhibitors (ALK-TKIs), such as alectinib and crizotinib, have been used in the treatment of NET patients with ALK rearrangement.
