A variety of different point mutations in NTRK1, NTRK2, and NTRK3 were identified in biopsy samples from a subjects having a variety of different cancers. Provided herein are methods of treating a subject having a cancer, methods of selecting a treatment including a therapeutically effective amount of a Trk inhibitor for a subject, methods of determining the likelihood that a subject having a cancer will have a positive response to a treatment with a Trk inhibitor, methods of predicting the efficacy of a Trk inhibitor in a subject having a cancer, methods of determining a subject's risk for developing a cancer, and methods of assisting in the diagnosis of cancer that are based on the identification of a subject having a cell that has at least one of the point mutations in NTRK1, NTRK2, and/or NTRK3, or the determination that a subject has a cell that has at least one of the point mutations in NTRK1, NTRK2, and/or NTRK3. Also provided are kits that allow for the detection of at least one of the point mutations in NTRK1, NTRK2, and/or NTRK3.
在患有各种不同癌症的受试者的活检样本中发现了NTRK1、NTRK2和NTRK3的各种不同点突变。本文提供了治疗癌症受试者的方法、为受试者选择包括治疗有效量的Trk抑制剂的治疗方法、确定癌症受试者对Trk抑制剂治疗产生阳性反应的可能性的方法、预测Trk抑制剂对癌症受试者的疗效的方法、确定受试者罹患癌症风险的方法,以及辅助诊断癌症的方法,这些方法的基础是鉴定受试者的细胞具有 NTRK1、NTRK2 和/或 NTRK3 中的至少一种点突变,或确定受试者的细胞具有 NTRK1、NTRK2 和/或 NTRK3 中的至少一种点突变。还提供了可检测 NTRK1、NTRK2 和/或 NTRK3 中至少一种点突变的试剂盒。
