Nuvalent Clinical TrialsNCT06765109NVL-655 is a 4th gen ALK TKI, designed to be effective with ALK resistance mutations. This study randmoizes particiaptns to receive first-line NVL-655 or alectinib. A concern is that lorlatinib, rather than alectinib, is the first-line standard of care for many recently diagnosed ALK lung cancer.
