“…In order to investigate the therapeutic efficacy of brigatinib in a neuroblastoma setting we employed several neuroblastoma cell lines, including CLB-BAR (MYCN amplification, ALK (Δ4-11) and amplified, ALK addicted), CLB-GE (MYCN amplification, ALK (F1174V) amplification, ALK addicted), IMR32 (MYCN amplification, WT ALK) and CLB-PE (MYCN amplified, WT ALK) [21,[31][32][33]. We have earlier shown that both CLB-BAR and CLB-GE cell lines are ALK addicted, while IMR32 and CLB-PE are not [34,35]. ALK addicted cell lines were treated with either brigatinib or crizotinib, as a positive control for ALK inhibition, and their effect on ALK signaling analyzed by immunoblotting ( Figure 1A, 1B).…”
