Description
A gene fusion between exon 10 of NTRK1 and exon 11 of the LMNA genes was observed in a patient with metastatic colorectal cancer after therapy with first-line FOLFOX, second-line FOLFIRI/cetuximab, and third-line irinotecan. The patient treated in a clinical trial with pan-TRK kinase inhibitor entrectinib. Treatment was well tolerated and led to a partial response (PR) with 30% tumor shrinkage of multiple liver metastases. Clinical response lasted 4 months. Longitudinal analysis of ctDNA in plasma samples revealed a p.G595R- and p.G667C mutation in NTRK1 that were absent before treatment initiation but emerged 4 weeks upon initiation of treatment with entrectinib. These mutations were also validated using xenograft, in vitro and 3D-modeling.
