Systematic population-based identification of NTRK and RET fusion-positive thyroid cancers
Objective: The aim of the study was to identify patients with NTRK fusion-positive or RET fusion/mutation-positive thyroid cancers, who could benefit from neurotrophic tyrosine kinase receptor (NTRK) or receptor tyrosine kinase (RET) inhibitors ...

Primary and Metastatic Melanoma With NTRK Fusions [PDF]
A number of oncogenic driver mutations have been identified in melanocytic nevi and melanoma, but translocations also play a role in tumorigenesis and provide potential therapeutic targets for malignant lesions. Various translocations, such as those involving the anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK), neurotrophic tropomyosin receptor kinase 1 (NTRK1), and ...

Neurotrophic receptor tyrosine kinase (NTRK) gene fusions are oncogenic drivers found in a few rare tumours. However, NTRK rearrangements are being increasingly identified in a range of soft tissue neoplasms. Recognition of NTRK fusion-driven sarcomas is

Identifying patients with NTRK fusion cancer [PDF]
Due to the efficacy of tropomyosin receptor kinase (TRK) inhibitor therapy and the recent Food and Drug Administration approval of larotrectinib, it is now clinically important to accurately and efficiently identify patients with neurotrophic TRK (NTRK) fusion-driven cancer.

Clinicopathologic and molecular spectrum of gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) with NTRK fusion and marked response to larotrectinib in GIST with NTRK fusion: a case report. [PDF]
Abstract Purpose This study aimed to characterize the clinicopathological, immunophenotypic, and molecular features of gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) harboring NTRK fusions and to evaluate their diagnostic, prognostic, and therapeutic implications.

Pediatric NTRK fusion sarcomas [PDF]
Abstract Background While ETV6-NTRK3 fusion is common in infantile fibrosarcoma, NTRK1 fusion in pediatric sarcoma is extremely rare and consequently not well known. Herein, we evaluated NTRK1 fusion pediatric sarcomas to determine their clinicopathological nature and differential diagnosis from classic ETV6-NTRK3 fusion infantile fibrosarcoma.

The NTRK genes encode the TRK proteins. NTRK fusions lead to constitutively active, ligand-independent downstream signaling. NTRK fusions are implicated in up to 1% of all solid tumors and 0.2% of NSCLC.
