General information

Class/mechanism: Tyrosine kinase inhibitor; inhibits anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK). Ceritinib prevents growth of ALK-rearranged cancer cells by inhibiting autophosphorylation of ALK and subsequent ALK-mediated phosphorylation of the downstream signaling protein STAT3. In vitro, ceritinib is 20 times as potent against ALK as compared to Crizotinib (Xalkori) and inhibits growth of cells expressing EML4-ALK and NPM-ALK fusion proteins. Ceritinib has been observed in EML4-ALK-rearranged non-small cell lung cancer xenograft models to have activity against crizotinib-sensitive and crizotinib-resistant tumors. Ceritinib also inhibits the insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor (IGF-1R), insulin receptor (InsR), and ROS1. It does not inhibit MET.[1][2][3][4]

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]
