Trial Summary

What is the purpose of this trial?

Explore the relationship between drug target ALK gene single nucleotide polymorphisms and XALKORI - Crizotinib therapeutic-effects in patients with non-small cell lung cancer, based on Oxford precisely sequencing drug targets' genes. Explore the relationship between drug target CYP4503A gene single nucleotide polymorphisms and XALKORI - Crizotinib side-effects in patients with non-small cell lung cancer, based on Oxford precisely sequencing drug targets' genes.

Treatment Details

Interventions

  • Crizotinib (Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitor)
Trial OverviewThe study investigates how genetic differences in the ALK gene and CYP4503A gene affect the effectiveness and side effects of Crizotinib in NSCLC patients. It involves precise gene sequencing and compares standard Crizotinib treatment against a study variant under double-blind conditions.
