Brief Summary: Brigatinib is a medicine that binds to the surface of tumor cells in some cancers and delivers a dose of chemotherapy directly to the tumor. In this study, participants will be people with non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC for short). The main aim of the study is to learn if brigatinib stops the tumors from growing, or if the tumors have shrunk or disappeared, compared to a medicine called alectinib.

At the first visit, the study doctor will check who can take part. Participants who can take part will be picked for 1 of 2 treatments by chance:

* Brigatinib tablets
* Alectinib capsules

All participants will take brigatinib or alectinib at about the same time every day. They will continue with treatment throughout the study unless their cancer gets worse, they have side effects from the treatment, they leave the study for certain reasons, or the study is stopped.

After stopping treatment, participants will visit the study clinic for a check-up 30 days later.
Detailed Description: The drug being tested in this study is called brigatinib. Brigatinib has been demonstrated to benefit people with anaplastic lymphoma kinase-positive (ALK+) NSCLC.

The comparator drug is called alectinib. Alectinib has been demonstrated to benefit people with ALK+ NSCLC. Both drugs belong to a class of drugs called anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) inhibitors. Both drugs are taken by mouth. Both drugs are approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration (US FDA).

The study will enroll approximately 246 participants. Participants will be randomly assigned (by chance, like flipping a coin) in 1:1 ratio to one of the two treatment groups:

* Brigatinib
* Alectinib

All participants will be asked to take brigatinib or alectinib at the same time each day throughout the study. For each participant eligible to continue in the study and to facilitate the remaining participants from Brigatinib-2002 (NCT03535740) to have continued treatment access, the study extension phase may be initiated for participants to continue receiving their randomized study treatment (i.e., brigatinib or alectinib) until they meet at least one of the treatment discontinuation criteria.

This multi-center trial will be conducted in the United States, Argentina, Austria, Canada, Chile, China, Croatia, France, Germany, Greece, Hong Kong, Italy, Mexico, Romania, Russia, South Korea, Spain, Sweden, Taiwan, and Thailand. The overall time to participate in this study is 5 years. Participants will make multiple visits to the clinic, and 30 days after last dose of study drug for a follow-up assessment.
