Understanding NTRK
What it means: NTRK gene fusions (NTRK1, NTRK2, NTRK3) create oncogenic fusion proteins. Found across many cancer types at low frequency.
Why it matters: NTRK inhibitors larotrectinib and entrectinib show >75% response rates regardless of tumor type (tumor-agnostic approval).
Testing: Tested via NGS (preferred), FISH, or IHC (pan-TRK screening). NGS captures all fusion partners.
