Brief Summary:
This retrospective study has a primary objective to estimate the incidence of NTRK gene fusion depending on the histological diagnosis. The tropomyosin receptor kinase (Trk) receptor family comprises 3 transmembrane proteins referred to as Trk A, B and C (TrkA, TrkB and TrkC) receptors that are encoded by the NTRK1, NTRK2 and NTRK3 genes, respectively. These receptor tyrosine kinases are expressed in human neuronal tissue and play an essential role in the physiology of development and function of the nervous system through activation by neurotrophins. Gene fusions involving NTRK genes lead to transcription of chimeric Trk proteins with constitutively activated or overexpressed kinase function conferring oncogenic potential. These genetic abnormalities have recently emerged as targets for cancer therapy, because novel compounds have been developed that are selective inhibitors of the constitutively active rearranged proteins. Developments in this field are being aided by next generation sequencing methods as tools for unbiased gene fusions discovery. However, the incidence of NTRK aberrations in solid tumors is unknown as well as the natural history of NTRK-rearranged tumors This study will provide better knowledge of NTRK gene fusion incidence to allow recommendations for pathological diagnosis.
Subjects who are tested positive by Immunohistochemistry (IHC : Pan-Trk IHC testing with mAb EPR17341) will be the subject of molecular assays such as next-generation sequencing (Archer Dx fusion assay) of tumor material \[parrafin embedded material\]), so that tumor harboring NTRK1, NTRK2 or NTRK3 gene fusions, is identified properly.
