CONTRADICTING EVIDENCE: We describe a multicenter case series of four consecutive patients with ETV6-NTRK3 fusion-positive metastatic salivary secretory carcinoma (SSC) treated with entrectinib….All patients achieved durable radiographic complete response….Durable complete response was achieved with entrectinib in patients with ETV6-NTRK3 fusion-positive metastatic SSC.
What hides behind the MASC: clinical response and acquired resistance to entrectinib after ETV6-NTRK3 identification in a mammary analogue secretory carcinoma (MASC)
Excerpt:
While ETV6-NTRK3 was detected in all three tumors (supplementary Figure S2, available at Annals of Oncology online), a novel NTRK3 exon 16 G623R (c.1867G>A) mutation was identified in the M2b tumor, correlating to the development of entrectinib resistance (Figure (Figure3B).3B).
