Researchers Show Lorlatinib is Safe and Effective for Patients with ALK-Driven Relapsed/Refractory High-Risk Neuroblastoma

PHILADELPHIA, April 3, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- In a significant step for the treatment of neuroblastoma, an international group of researchers led by Children's Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP), Winship Cancer Institute of Emory University and the New Approaches to Neuroblastoma Therapy (NANT) Consortium has shown that the targeted therapy lorlatinib is safe and effective in treating high-risk neuroblastoma. The findings, published today in Nature Medicine, have led to a major amendment in a phase 3 Children's Oncology Group (COG) clinical trial, which has incorporated lorlatinib for newly diagnosed ALK-driven high-risk neuroblastoma, as well as a planned amendment to the European phase 3 trial in collaboration with the International Society of Paediatric Oncology European Neuroblastoma (SIOPEN).

Key Points: 
  • The difficulties we experienced in targeting ALK with crizotinib in neuroblastoma motivated us to find a more potent ALK inhibitor.
  • In the phase 1 NANT trial, researchers found that lorlatinib given alone or in combination with chemotherapy was safe and tolerable in pediatric, adolescent, and adult patients with relapsed/refractory ALK-driven neuroblastoma.
  • The researchers noted that younger patients treated with lorlatinib alone – particularly those with amplification of an oncogene called MYCN – had fewer responses compared to older patients.
