Does Xalkori Alone Help Cure Phase L ALKpositive?

Dear Doc, Without combination of other treatment (like chemco, etc), if we only use Xalkori, will it work or not for phase I ALK positive? Besides the listed side effects, are there other risks on using Xalkori? Your prompt info and help will be highly appreciated.
