So, Brigatinib is this ALK inhibitor thing for that type of lung cancer where the ALK is acting up. It works by blocking the activity of the anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) protein, which is involved in the growth and spread of cancer cells. This drug comes in a few strengths—30 mg, 90 mg, or 180 mg.
You start with 90 mg once a day for a week, then go up to 180 mg every day after that. Each bottle’s got 30 of these tablets in it.
