Abbreviations: ALK, anaplastic lymphoma kinase; CI, confidence interval; CT, chemotherapy; EXP, expansion cohort; IC, intracranial; ITT, intention‐to‐treat; NE, not estimable; NR, not reached; ORR, objective response rate; TKI, tyrosine kinase inhibitor.

a

Lines of therapy (if the same TKI was given twice, this was counted as two prior lines of treatment).

b

Confirmed response

c

Using exact method based on binomial distribution.

d

Kaplan‐Meier estimated median with 95% CI calculated using the Brookmeyer and Crowley method.

e

Number of patients with ≥1 measurable central nervous system lesion at baseline.

f

No patient met the reporting criteria.
