ZYKADIA Target & Pathway

Pro

Target

ALK (Anaplastic Lymphoma Kinase) Receptor Tyrosine Kinase

A receptor tyrosine kinase that, when mutated or rearranged, drives cancer cell growth. ALK rearrangements occur in about 5% of non-small cell lung cancers. Inhibiting ALK blocks aberrant signaling that promotes tumor survival and proliferation.
