- Duration of Response (DOR) per RECIST v1.1 [ Time Frame: From first occurrence of a documented objective response to disease progression or death from any cause, whichever occurs first (up to 5 years) ]
- Progression-Free Survival (PFS) per RECIST v1.1 [ Time Frame: From first dose of alectinib to disease progression or death from any cause, whichever occurs first (up to 5 years) ]
- Central Nervous System (CNS) ORR per RECIST v1.1 [ Time Frame: Baseline up to 5 years ]
