Article Synopsis
  • - The study focused on treatment experiences for kids with NTRK-fused tumors, looking at access to care, how they responded to treatment, side effects, and overall health outcomes.
  • - Researchers reviewed data from 17 pediatric cases treated with larotrectinib, identifying six NTRK fusion subtypes and noting that 11 of 14 patients had positive tumor responses, with various levels of adverse effects reported.
  • - The findings suggest that larotrectinib is effective for treating these tumors in children, but challenges still exist in ensuring consistent access to treatment, particularly in countries with limited resources like Brazil.

Here we demonstrate the involvement of the CNS in patients with NB over 18 months of age at diagnosis of extensive systemic disease. Meningeal metastases were observed even in the presence of complete systemic control.
