NTRK Fusion in Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer: Diagnosis, Therapy, and TRK Inhibitor Resistance [PDF]
Neurotrophic tropomyosin receptor kinase (NTRK) gene fusion has been identified as an oncogenic driver of various solid tumors, and it is rare in non-smalll cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with a frequency of approximately less than 1%.

ERK signaling promotes resistance to TRK kinase inhibition in NTRK fusion-driven glioma mouse models [PDF]
Summary: Pediatric-type high-grade gliomas frequently harbor gene fusions involving receptor tyrosine kinase genes, including neurotrophic tyrosine kinase receptor (NTRK) fusions.

Prevalence of neurotrophic tropomyosin receptor kinase (NTRK) fusion gene positivity in patients with solid tumors in Japan [PDF]
Background Members of the neurotrophic tropomyosin receptor kinase (NTRK) gene family, NTRK1, NTRK2, and NTRK3 encode TRK receptor tyrosine kinases. Intra‐ or inter‐chromosomal gene rearrangements produce NTRK gene fusions encoding fusion proteins which ...

NTRK fusion in Japanese colorectal adenocarcinomas [PDF]
NTRK fusion-positive tumors are known to be highly sensitive to TRK inhibitors, such as larotrectinib and entrectinib. Therefore, identification of patients who can potentially benefit from these inhibitors is important; however, the frequency of NTRK ...

NTRK fusion promotes tumor migration and invasion through epithelial–mesenchymal transition and closely interacts with ECM1 and NOVA1 [PDF]
Background The NTRK fusion gene is a rare cancer driver and a typical representative "diamond mutation". Its unique role in tumor progression is highly important for the clinical diagnosis and treatment of patients with tumors.

Estimating the Prognostic Value of the NTRK Fusion Biomarker for Comparative Effectiveness Research in The Netherlands. [PDF]
Objectives: We evaluated the prognostic value of the neurotrophic tyrosine receptor kinase (NTRK) gene fusions by comparing the survival of patients with NTRK+ tumours with patients without NTRK+ tumours.

Genomic context of NTRK1/2/3 fusion-positive tumours from a large real-world population [PDF]
Neurotrophic tropomyosin receptor kinase (NTRK) gene fusions are rare oncogenic drivers in solid tumours. This study aimed to interrogate a large real-world database of comprehensive genomic profiling data to describe the genomic landscape and prevalence

NTRK fusion protein expression is absent in a large cohort of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma [PDF]
BackgroundEven though two NTRK-targeting drugs are available for the treatment of irresectable, metastatic, or progressive NTRK-positive solid tumors, less is known about the role of NTRK fusions in lymphoma.

NTRK rearranged sarcoma of the bone. Role for larotrectinib in the neoadjuvant setting of an ultra-rare tumor: a case report [PDF]
Background: Neurotrophic tyrosine receptor kinase (NTRK) gene-fusion targeted molecules revolutionized the paradigm of treatment of a limited subgroup of cancers of various histologies.

Isolated Leptomeningeal Progression in a Patient with NTRK Fusion+ Uterine Sarcoma: A Case Report [PDF]
While neurotrophic tropomyosin receptor kinase (NTRK) fusions represent rare oncogenic drivers (<1% of solid cancers), the recent approval of NTRK inhibitors (larotrectinib and entrectinib) led to dramatic responses in patients with NTRK fusion ...
