WHAT XALKORI IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR
XALKORI is an anticancer medicine containing the active substance
crizotinib used to treat adults
with a type of lung cancer called non-small cell lung cancer, that
presents with a specific
rearrangement or defect in either a gene called anaplastic lymphoma
kinase (ALK) or a gene called
ROS1.
XALKORI can be prescribed to you for the initial treatment if your
disease is at an advanced stage of
lung cancer.
XALKORI can be prescribed to you if your disease is at an advanced
stage and previous treatment has
not helped to stop your disease.
XALKORI may slow or stop the growth of lung cancer. It may help shrink
tumours
.
XALKORI is used to treat children and adolescents (age ≥6 to <18
years) with a type of tumour called
anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL) or a type of tumour called
inflammatory myofibroblastic
tumour (IMT) that present with a specific rearrangement or defect in a
