TLDR
Selective inhibition of TRK signaling may be beneficial among patients whose tumors vary in histologies, but share underlying oncogenic NTRK gene alterations, as well as several TRK‐targeting compounds in clinical development.

Entrectinib in patients with advanced or metastatic NTRK fusion-positive solid tumours: integrated analysis of three phase 1–2 trials

TL;DR: Results show that entrectinib induced durable and clinically meaningful responses in patients with NTRK fusion-positive solid tumours, and was well tolerated with a manageable safety profile.
Journal ArticleDOI

ERK/MAPK signalling pathway and tumorigenesis.

TL;DR: The present review discusses recent studies on Ras and ERK pathway members and the role of the ERK/MAPK signalling pathway in tumour extracellular matrix degradation and tumour angiogenesis is emphasised.
Journal ArticleDOI

Small molecules in targeted cancer therapy: advances, challenges, and future perspectives.

TL;DR: A comprehensive review of small-molecule targeted anti-cancer drugs according to the target classification is conducted, which presents all the approved drugs as well as important drug candidates in clinical trials for each target, and discusses the current challenges.
Journal ArticleDOI

Molecular characterization of cancers with NTRK gene fusions.

TL;DR: The rarity of NTRK genes fusions outside the brain malignancies is confirmed and strategies for detection of the N TRK fusion-driven cancers may include immunohistochemistry, but gene fusion detection remains the most reliable tool.
Journal ArticleDOI

Pan-Trk Immunohistochemistry Is an Efficient and Reliable Screen for the Detection of NTRK Fusions.

TL;DR: Pan-Trk IHC is a time-efficient and tissue-efficient screen for NTRK fusions, particularly in driver-negative advanced malignancies and potential cases of secretory carcinoma and congenital fibrosarcoma, and can help determine whether translation occurs for novel N TRK rearrangements.

The treatment of suicidality in adolescents by psychosocial interventions for depression: a systematic literature review

TL;DR: There is evidence to suggest that Cognitive Behavioural Therapy interventions produce pre–post reductions in suicidality with moderate effect sizes and are at least as efficacious as pharmacotherapy in reducing suicideality; however, it is unclear whether these effects are sustained.
Journal ArticleDOI

In vitro and in vivo effects of bicalutamide on the expression of TrkA and P75 neurotrophin receptors in prostate carcinoma

TL;DR: Neurotrophine tyrosine kinase receptors (NTR) are expressed in prostate carcinoma (PCa), and their distribution seems to be related to disease malignancy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mutations in NTRK3 suggest a novel signaling pathway in human congenital heart disease.

TL;DR: Functional analysis using neuroblastoma cell lines expressing mutant TrkC demonstrated that one of the mutations significantly reduced autophosphorylation in response to ligand binding, subsequently decreasing phosphorylation of downstream target proteins.
