Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Treatment: Drugs - Ceritinib

Experimental: LDK378 - All participants were administered a single-agent LDK378 (Ceritinib) orally, once daily, continuously in fasted or fed conditions.


Treatment: Drugs: Ceritinib
LDK378 is a capsule taken by mouth, contents can be mixed with food for pediatric patients or mixed with water and given via nasogastric/gastric (NG/G) tube. For patients in fasted group: 1-2 tablespoons (15-30 mL) of an appropriate food such as apple sauce or non-fat yogurt and a glass of water were allowed.

For patients in the fed cohort: LDK378 was taken with, or within 30 minutes after finishing a low-fat light snack containing 100-300 calories and 1.5-2 grams of fat.
