Keytruda for Adenocarcinoma (NSCLC), first PET-CT result

Hello friends,

My mom, (aged 77, Adenocarcinoma NSCLC, Stage 4, EGFR and ALK negative)  was diagnosed in 2014, underwent VATS and pleurodesis, followed by 6 cycles of Carboplatin & Alimta, Alimta maintenance, Tarceva (for just a couple of months) and is now on Keytruda for her stage 4, lung cancer treatment.  Her PDL-1 expression was over 70%.

Stage IIIb ALK NSCLC first line treatment

Forums

This question is not for a specific patient, it is designed to understand how oncologists would approach this problem. There’s a 50 year old stage IIIb unresectable NSCLC patient with ALK positive FISH biopsy result. PD-L1 25%. ECOG 0-1. Should this patient be treated first line with Chemoradiation+Durvalumab or Alectinib? Would the recommendation be any different with EGFR mutation?
