Unclassified mesenchymal sarcoma with NTRK1-KHDRBS1 gene fusion: a case report of long-term tumor-free survival with crizotinib treatment. (PubMed, World J Surg Oncol)
This case will be of significant interest to pathologists because, despite the tumor being unclassified, a molecular target was identified. Although the FDA does not currently approve crizotinib for treatment of patients harboring NTRK gene fusions, this case provides new insights for diagnosis and treatment of mesenchymal sarcomas with NTRK1 gene translocations. Similar to ALKomas, which can be successfully treated using NTRK molecular-targeted therapy, tumors with NTRK gene translocations can be classified as NTRKomas, even when they occur at different organ sites, and with varying histological morphologies, and immunophenotypes.
