Identification of Trim24 as a new NTRK3 fusion partner in lung adenocarcinoma: Diagnostic challenges of a novel fusion

Reliable neurotrophin kinase (NTRK) fusion assessment is of special relevance since durable responses to targeted therapies have been observed regardless tumor type, NTRK gene or fusion partner. The most prevalent NTRK fusion in solid tumors is the ETV6-NTRK3, although alternative NTRK3 translocations with new partners are increasingly described across a wide variety of tumor types.
