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%.

A novel c-Met/TRK inhibitor 1D228 efficiently inhibits tumor growth by targeting angiogenesis and tumor cell proliferation [PDF]
Multiple tumors are synergistically promoted by c-Met and TRK, and blocking their cross-signalling pathway may give better effects. In this study, we developed a tyrosine kinase inhibitor 1D228, which exhibited excellent anti-tumor activity by targeting ...

Corticosteroids for Managing TRK Inhibitor Withdrawal Pain: A Report on Two Cases [PDF]
Background: Neurotrophin receptor tyrosine kinase (NTRK) fusions are potent oncogenic mutations. Inhibitors such as larotrectinib, entrectinib and repotrectinib are used when cancer cells harbor NTRK1, NTRK2 or NTRK3 fusion.

A De Novo Peptide That Induces Axonal Growth Through TrkB Activation. [PDF]
A homodimeric anti‐TrkB macrocyclic peptide, DiTrbL3, originally discovered by the RaPID system as monomeric form, dimerizes the TrkB receptor and activate the downstream signaling. DiTrbL3 acts as a mimic of BDNF (the natural protein ligand) and stimulates hippocampal neurons to extend axons.

Not all NTRK fusions in mesenchymal neoplasia are driver events: implications on classification and targeted therapy. [PDF]
Abstract NTRK fusions drive the pathogenesis of a distinctive group of mesenchymal neoplasms with significant impact on classification and targeted therapy. However, unexpected NTRK fusions have been reported in other sarcoma entities, raising uncertainty over their specificity and clinical management.

Paediatric and Adult Solid Tumours Exhibiting NTRK Gene Fusions in Australia, 2020–2044: A Population‐Based Statistical Modelling Study [PDF]
Background TRK inhibitors targeting NTRK fusion‐positive cancers have the potential to improve patient outcomes, but also have high costs. We report the first long‐term projections of cancer prevalence associated with NTRK gene fusions in Australia, to ...
