New hope for lung cancer patients: lorlatinib shows promise in Real-World study
NCT ID NCT06282991
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at how well the drug lorlatinib works for people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer that has a specific gene change (ALK). All 73 participants had already tried other treatments and took lorlatinib pills at home. The study tracked how long the drug kept the cancer from growing, how many people responded, and what side effects occurred. Results help doctors understand the real-world benefits and risks of lorlatinib for this type of lung cancer.
