Description
The NSCLC cell line MGH021-4, harboring SQSTM1-ALK G1269A, was 6 times more sensitive to ceritinib (80nM GI50) than crizotinib (500 nM) in proliferation assays and caused notable reductions in phospho-ALK and phospho-AKT (detected by Western blot) at concentrations 10 fold lower than crizotinib. GI50 values were similar in Ba/F3 cells expressing either EML4-ALK wild-type or EML4-ALK G1269A (1.6nM and 2.2nM, respectively). In contrast, crizotinib treatment of Ba/F3 with EML4-ALK G1269A had survival GI50 of 130nM.
