Based on the clinical efficacy of ALK inhibitors in ALK+NSCLC, NCCN guidelines recommend ALK
molecular testing of lung cancer patients, to select patients for ALK-targeted therapy.
However, molecular testing via tissue biopsy cannot always be performed on NSCLC patients,
potentially limiting access of effective treatment to the subset of patients who are able to
undergo current testing procedures that utilize tissue biopsies. Obtaining an adequate tissue
biopsy specimen for NSCLC presents a number of challenges. In particular, the method for
diagnosis of lung cancer depends on the location, size, and type of suspected lung cancer,
and the presence or absence of metastases. Common procedures for centrally located tumors
include bronchoscopy and sputum cytology, which frequently yield insufficient tumor tissue
for comprehensive mutation testing. In addition, 75% of patients are diagnosed with
late-stage disease and often present with multiple comorbidities. Biopsies in these patients
can lead to complications such as pneumothorax, hemoptysis, other bleeding complications, and
cardiopulmonary decompensation. As a result of these factors, a physician treating a patient
who presents with a significant burden of disease as well as significant comorbidities may
rightly consider whether it is in the best interest of the patient to undergo a risky and
potentially unsuccessful procedure. Thus, there exists a major unmet clinical need for
testing procedures that do not require tumor tissue. The purpose of this phase II study is to
assess the efficacy of brigatinib in patients with advanced NSCLC harboring ALK rearrangement
that are selected using predictive biomarkers identified via blood-based assays.

Stage III (locally advanced) or metastatic ALK+ NSCLC.(Previous treatment only allowed
one ALK-inhibitor) Patients who have received prior neo-adjuvant, adjuvant
chemotherapy, radiotherapy, or chemoradiotherapy with curative intent for
non-metastatic disease must have experienced a treatment-free interval of at least 6
months since the last chemotherapy, radiotherapy, or chemoradiotherapy cycle.

5. Have at least 1 measurable lesion per RECIST version 1.1
6. Have Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status 0-2
7. Recovered from toxicities related to prior anticancer therapy to NCI CTCAE, version
5.0, Grade≤1(Note : Alopecia, sensory neuropathy Grade≤2, or other Grade≤2 AEs not
constituting a safety risk based on Investigator's judgement are acceptable
8. Have a life expectancy of ≥3 months
9. Have adequate organ and hematologic function as determined by:
1. ALT/AST≤2.5×ULN; ≤5×ULN is acceptable if liver metastases are present
2. Total serum bilirubin≤1.5×ULN (<3.0×ULN for patients with Gilbert syndrome)
3. Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) ≥30 mL/min/1.73 m2, using the MDRD
equation
4. Absolute neutrophil count ≥1.5×109/L.
5. Platelet count ≥75×109/L.
6. Hemoglobin ≥9 g/dL.
7. Serum lipase ≤1.5×ULN
10. For female patients of childbearing potential, have a negative pregnancy test(urine or
serum) documented ≤3 days before start of study medication.
non-childbearing potential which is defined as :
- female patient≥45 years of age and has not had menses for greater than 1 year
- a female who is status post hysterectomy, oophorectomy
11. Female patients of childbearing potential and male patients with partners of
childbearing potential must agree to use 2 effective methods of contraception, at the
same time, from the time of signing the informed consent through 4 months after the
last dose of study drug, or agree to completely abstain from heterosexual
intercourseHave the willingness and ability to comply with scheduled visit and study
procedures.
Male patients, even if surgically sterilized (i.e., status post-vasectomy), who:
- Agree to practice effective barrier contraception during the entire study
treatment period and through 4 months after the last dose of study drug, or
- Agree to completely abstain from heterosexual intercourse
12. Have the willingness and ability to comply with scheduled visit and study procedures.
13. Be ≥ 18 years of age
Exclusion Criteria:
1. Has received ALK-targeted TKI within 7 days before the first dose of study
treatment(If clinically justified, 3 days wash-out period could be allowed).
2. Has received radiotherapy within 14 days before the first dose of study treatment
except for stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) or stereotactic body radiation therapy
(SBRT). A 1-week washout is permitted for palliative radiation(≤2 weeks of
radiotherapy) to non-CNS disease.
3. Had major surgery within 28 days of the first dose of study treatment. Minor surgical
procedures are allowed.
4. Has symptomatic brain metastasis or leptomeningeal disease. Prior brain metastasis or
leptomeningeal disease allowed if asymptomatic or stable symptoms that did not require
an increased dose of corticosteroids to control symptoms within 7 days prior to study
enrollment. If patients have neurological symptoms or signs due to CNS metastasis,
patients need to complete whole brain radiation or stereotactic radiosurgery treatment
before enrollment and be clinically stable.
5. Has current spinal cord compression
