Synergistic Effect of Alectinib and Everolimus on ALK-positive Anaplastic Large Cell Lymphoma Growth Inhibition

The aim of the study was to examine the efficacy of the combination of anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) inhibitors with other inhibitors for the treatment of ALK-positive lymphomas. This approach is predicted to be an alternative way for suppressing ALK-positive anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL).We treated ALK-positive ALCL cell lines, KARPAS-299 and SU-DHL-1, with the ALK inhibitor alectinib and the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR)...
