Multicenter, randomized, controlled, open-label, Phase 3 study designed to demonstrate that neladalkib (NVL-655) is superior to alectinib in prolonging progression-free survival (PFS) in patients with treatment-naïve, Anaplastic Lymphoma Kinase (ALK) positive, advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC).
Patients will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio (approximately 225 in each arm) to receive either neladalkib (NVL-655) or alectinib.
Inclusion Criteria: 1. Histologically or cytologically confirmed locally advanced (not amenable for multimodality treatment) or metastatic Non-small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) 2. Documented Anaplastic Lymphoma Kinase (ALK) rearrangement via testing of tissue or blood 3. No prior systemic anticancer treatment for NSCLC (adjuvant/neoadjuvant chemotherapy allowed if 12 months prior to randomization; prior ALK tyrosine kinase inhibitor \[TKI\] such as alectinib is not allowed in any setting) 4. Measurable disease (1 or more target lesions per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors \[RECIST\]…
