A Chinese male patient with advanced lung adenocarcinoma experienced disease progression one and a half years after receiving first-line immunochemotherapy. The second biopsy was performed and tissue immunohistochemistry revealed Anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) expression in the cytoplasm of tumor cells, so he began to receive Alectinib treatment. Then the next generation sequencing found double fusion variants of S1 RNA binding domain 1 (SRBD1)- ALK and ALK- Calcium voltage-gated channel subunit alpha1 D (CACNA1D).

Objectives: Anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) rearrangements account for approximately 3-5% in non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients who tend to be young and never/light-smokers. Echinoderm microtubule-associated protein like 4 (EML4) is the most common partner for ALK fusion, while more than 90 other partners have been reported in NSCLC. Majority of the ALK actionable rearrangements were sensitive to crizotinib, yet some rare fusion types may less benefit than EML4-ALK.
