Abstract
Anaplastic lymphoma kinase inhibitors (ALKi) like ceritinib are considered standard for front-line treatment of non-small cell lung cancers (NSCLC) harboring a translocation of the anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) gene. We report herein a case of interstitial lung disease (ILD) that developed following a 7-month ceritinib treatment without recurrence under either crizotinib or brigatinib, two others ALKi.Entities:
