Lorlatinib is a third-generation anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) and ROS1 tyrosine kinase inhibitor. It has a significant inhibitory effect on a variety of ALK resistance mutations (such as G1202R, I1171T, etc.), and can penetrate the blood-brain barrier to effectively control metastatic lesions in the central nervous system.

3. Drug interaction : It is prohibited to use strong CYP3A inducers (such as rifampicin) in combination with moderate CYP3A inducers or sensitive CYP3A substrates.

7. Medication for special groups

2. Lactation : Breastfeeding is prohibited during treatment and within 7 days after the last dose.

3. Children : Safety has not been established.
