About NTRK Fusion-Positive Solid Tumors
Neurotrophic tyrosine receptor kinase (NTRK) gene fusions are an actionable biomarker for cancer therapy and can be found in over 25 different types of cancer, regardless of where they are located in the body. NTRK fusion-positive tumors have been identified in a broad range of solid tumor types, including breast, cholangiocarcinoma, colorectal, gynecological, neuroendocrine, non-small cell lung, salivary gland, pancreatic, sarcoma and thyroid cancers.
How are NTRK fusion-positive tumors treated?
Recent advances in personalized medicine mean that NTRK fusion-positive tumors may be appropriate for treatment with a targeted medicine regardless of the type of cancer or where it originated. This is called a tumor-agnostic treatment approach.
