Abstract
Lung cancer is the malignant tumors with the most incredible mortality rate and an estimated 2.2 million newly diagnosed cases worldwide, according to the World Health Organization 2020 report, significantly endangering the lives and health of people globally, which makes this kind of disease one of the most prevalent malignancies globally. 85% - 90% of all lung tumors are due to non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) which is a common occurrences form of lung cancer. Lorlatinib, a cutting-edge ALK inhibitor of the third-generation, has more systemic and intracranial effectiveness than ALK inhibitors of the first- and second-generations. In addition, it is effective against most single mutations known to result in ALK resistance. The treatment of patients suffering from NSCLC with Lorlatinib was approved by Japan and the US in 2018, by the EU in 2019, and by China in April 2022, when the drug should become available. For the purpose of providing a reference for clinical medication, this article reviews the clinical research progress, intracranial treatment effect and drug toxicity of Lorlatinib therapy.
