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.

This may be the first clinical evidence of LGSO benefit from ALK inhibitors, to provide evidence for the use of ALK inhibitors in more ovarian cancer patients with EML4-ALK fusion and promoting new ideas for the study of EML4-ALK targets in ovarian cancer.

Targeted covalent inhibitors (TCIs) play an essential role in the fields of kinase research and drug discovery. Most existing TCIs are however cysteine- or lysine-reactive, thus severely limiting their potential applications. New types of TCIs capable of covalently targeting other nucleophilic amino acids that are readily available in proteins are urgently needed.

Non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is a highly heterogeneous disease that is frequently associated with a host of known oncogenic alterations. Advances in molecular diagnostics and drug development have facilitated the targeting of novel alterations such that the majority of NSCLC patients have driver mutations that are now clinically actionable. The goal of this review is to gain insights into clinical research and development principles by summary, analysis, and discussion of data on agents targeting known alterations in oncogene-driven, advanced NSCLC beyond those in the and the .
