NCT ID NCT06862869

First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study follows 800 Chinese patients with early-stage ALK-positive non-small-cell lung cancer who took alectinib after surgery to see how long they stay cancer-free. Researchers will collect real-world data on disease-free survival and patient characteristics. The goal is to understand how well alectinib works in everyday clinical practice.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance

Alectinib

What this could lead to

If successful, this study could confirm that alectinib helps prevent lung cancer from returning after surgery in ALK-positive patients, supporting its use in routine care.

What could go wrong

This is an observational study, not a controlled trial, so results may be influenced by patient differences. It only includes Chinese patients, so findings may not apply globally.
