Intervention/exposure
Study type

Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Treatment: Drugs - Brigatinib
Treatment: Drugs - Crizotinib

Experimental: Randomized Phase: Brigatinib 90 mg QD/180 QD - Brigatinib 90 mg, tablets, orally, QD for first 7 days followed by 180 mg, orally, QD, in each 28-day cycle until PD, intolerable toxicity, consent withdrawal, or death (The median duration of exposure was 34.86 months).

Active comparator: Randomized Phase: Crizotinib 250 mg BID - Crizotinib 250 mg, tablets, BID in each 28-day cycle until disease progression, intolerable toxicity, consent withdrawal, or death (The median duration of exposure was 9.26 months).

Experimental: Crossover Phase: Brigatinib 90 mg QD/180 mg QD - Participants who experienced PD as assessed by the BIRC or received radiotherapy to the brain while on 'Crizotinib 250 mg BID' therapy in Randomized Phase were crossed over. Following 10-day washout period, crossover participants received brigatinib 90 mg, tablets, orally, QD for first 7 days followed by 180 mg, tablets, orally, QD in each 28-day cycle up to end of the study (The median duration of exposure was 17.25 months).
