Description
In this manuscript, the authors describe the first genetically engineered mouse model of ETV6-NTRK3 ALL and report remarkable efficacy of TRK inhibitors, which induce complete suppression of leukemic cell proliferation when administered as a monotherapy. They also show in vivo efficacy of TRK inhibition in a PDX model of ETV6-NTRK3 ALL. TRK-targeting compounds including PLX7486 and larotrectinib are predicted to show efficacy in B-ALL with ETV6-NTRK3 fusion which accounts for approximately 1% of Ph-like B-ALL.
