Summary

This early-stage study tests gilteritinib, a drug already used for a type of leukemia, in people with ALK-positive non-small cell lung cancer whose cancer has stopped responding to standard ALK inhibitors. The main goal is to check the drug's safety and find the right dose. About 40 adults will take gilteritinib pills daily and be monitored for up to 4 years.
