Mutated anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) drives the development of multiple tumor types, and ALK tyrosine kinase inhibitors such as crizotinib have been validated as targeted therapeutics. Unfortunately, as with other oncogene-driven tumors, therapeutic resistance invariably develops. In Science Translational Medicine, two recent studies provide new insight into mechanisms of resistance to ALK tyrosine kinase inhibitors and possible strategies to overcome this resistance.
