Clinicopathological and computed tomography features of patients with early-stage non-small-cell lung cancer harboring ALK rearrangement [PDF]
Background Although some studies have assessed the correlation between computed tomography (CT) features and anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) rearrangement in patients with non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC), few have focused on early-stage patients. The

PI3Kβ inhibition enhances ALK-inhibitor sensitivity in ALK-rearranged lung cancer. [PDF]
Treatment with anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) inhibitors significantly improves outcome for non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients with ALK-rearranged tumors. However, clinical resistance typically develops over time and, in the majority of cases, resistance mechanisms are ALK-independent.
