Clinical characteristics and outcomes of central nervous system tumors harboring NTRK gene fusions

Tropomyosin receptor kinase (TRK) fusions are detected in less than 2% of central nervous system tumors. There are limited data on the clinical course of affected patients.We conducted an international retrospective cohort study of patients with TRK fusion-driven central nervous system tumors.A tota...

Description
Summary:Tropomyosin receptor kinase (TRK) fusions are detected in less than 2% of central nervous system tumors. There are limited data on the clinical course of affected patients.We conducted an international retrospective cohort study of patients with TRK fusion-driven central nervous system tumors.A total of 119 patients were identified. The median age at the time of diagnosis was 4.5 years. The majority were reported to have a histology consistent with a diagnosis of high-grade glioma (HGG; 57.1%) followed by low-grade glioma (LGG; 27.7%). Pediatric patients had a better prognosis, with a median overall survival of 185.5 months compared with 24.8 months in adults (P < 0.0001). Patients with LGG also had a better outcome when compared with HGG (P = 0.0012). The objective response was 68.8% with larotrectinib compared with 38.1% for nontargeted treatment.Children with LGG had a favorable outcome compared with adult glioma and HGG. TRK inhibitors seem to improve tumor control.
