Understanding RET
What it means: RET alterations include fusions (lung cancer) and point mutations (thyroid cancer). Drives cancer through constitutive kinase activity.
Why it matters: Selective RET inhibitors selpercatinib and pralsetinib show high response rates in RET-altered cancers.
Testing: Tested via NGS for fusions and mutations. FISH can detect rearrangements but misses mutations.
