Tumors Harboring NTRK Fusion Clinical Trial
Official title:
Expanded Access to Provide Larotrectinib (LOXO-101) for the Treatment of Cancers With a NTRK Gene Fusion
Larotrectinib expanded access is for patients with cancer with a NTRK1, NTRK2, or NTRK3 gene
fusion, who are ineligible for an ongoing larotrectinib clinical trial or have other
considerations that prevent access to larotrectinib through an existing clinical trial. Gene
fusion occurs when a gene is made by joining parts of two different genes. NTRK gene fusion
can lead to the development of solid tumors in a variety of tissue types. The study drug
larotrectinib blocks the action of the NTRK gene fusion.
Expanded access is intended to treat individual patients with different types of cancers with
a NTRK gene fusion who are unresponsive to current standard treatment for their condition and
also are unable to participate in ongoing clinical trials.
