How does it work
Alecinix is a tyrosine kinase inhibitor that targets ALK and RET. In nonclinical studies, Alectinib inhibited ALK phosphorylation and ALK-mediated activation of the downstream signaling proteins STAT3 and AKT, and decreased tumor cell viability in multiple cell lines harboring ALK fusions, amplifications, or activating mutations. The major active metabolite of Alectinib , M4, showed similar in vitro potency and activity.
Warning and Precautions
- Hepatotoxicity: Monitor liver laboratory tests every 2 weeks during the first 3 months of treatment, then once a month and as clinically indicated, with more frequent testing in patients who develop transaminase and bilirubin elevations. In case of severe ALT, AST, or bilirubin elevations, withhold, then reduce dose, or permanently discontinue Alectinib.
- Interstitial Lung Disease (ILD)/Pneumonitis: Immediately withhold Alecinix in patients diagnosed with ILD/pneumonitis and permanently discontinue if no other potential causes of ILD/pneumonitis have been identified.
- Renal Impairment: Withhold Alecinix for severe renal impairment, then resume Alectinib at reduced dose upon recovery or permanently discontinue.
- Bradycardia: Monitor heart rate and blood pressure regularly. If symptomatic, withhold Alecinix then reduce dose, or permanently discontinue.
- Severe Myalgia and Creatine Phosphokinase (CPK) Elevation: Assess CPK every 2 weeks during the first month of treatment and in patients reporting unexplained muscle pain, tenderness, or weakness. In case of severe CPK elevations, withhold, then resume or reduce dose.
- Embryo-Fetal Toxicity: Alectinib can cause fetal harm. Advise females of reproductive potential of the potential risk to a fetus and to use effective contraception.
