Impact of Disease Evolution on Efficacy Outcomes From Larotrectinib in Patients With Locally Advanced or Metastatic Tropomyosin Receptor Kinase Fusion-Positive Solid Tumors.

The short time from initial diagnosis to adv/met stage before larotrectinib suggests that NTRK gene fusion does not generally have a positive prognostic value. Patients on larotrectinib had high, sustained ORR, independent of number of prior therapies or duration of adv/met disease, suggesting that the effect of TRK inhibition in molecularly selected patients is independent of prior treatments or disease course.
