Emerging TRK Inhibitors Are Explored Across Cancer Settings

Gene fusions, particularly NTRK, drive cancer progression and have led to targeted therapies like larotrectinib and entrectinib. These fusions are rare but crucial in specific cancers, with some patients experiencing long-term remissions. Resistance mechanisms and the development of second-generation TRK inhibitors aim to overcome treatment challenges.
