A Phase II, Multicenter, Single-arm Study of Oral LDK378 in Adult Patients With ALK-activated Non-small Cell Lung Cancer Previously Treated With Chemotherapy and Crizotinib

A single-arm, open-label, multicenter, phase II study. Treatment with LDK378 750 mg qd continued until the patient experienced unacceptable toxicity that precluded further treatment, discontinued treatment at the discretion of the investigator or patient, started a new anti-cancer therapy and/or died. LDK378 could be continued beyond RECIST-defined progressive disease (PD) as assessed by the investigator if, in the judgment of the investigator, there was evidence of clinical benefit. In these patients tumor assessment would continue as per the schedule of assessments until treatment with LDK378 was permanently discontinued. Patients who discontinued the study medication in the absence of progression continued to be followed for tumor assessment until the time of PD as assessed by the investigator
