General information

Class/mechanism: Tyrosine kinase inhibitor; inhibits anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK), c-MET and subsequent expression of Hepatocyte Growth Factor Receptor (HGFR), and Recepteur d’Origine Nantais (RON). Inhibits activity of fusion proteins involving ALK, such as EML4-ALK and NPM-ALK.[1][2]
Route: PO
Extravasation: n/a

For conciseness and simplicity, HemOnc.org currently will focus on treatment regimens and not list information such as: renal/hepatic dose adjustments, metabolism (including CYP450), excretion, monitoring parameters (although this will be considered for checklists), or manufacturer. Instead, for the most current information, please refer to your preferred pharmacopeias such as Micromedex, Lexicomp, UpToDate (courtesy of Lexicomp), or the prescribing information.[1]
