Detection of Novel Tyrosine Kinase Fusion Genes as Potential Therapeutic Targets in Bone and Soft Tissue Sarcomas Using DNA/RNA-based Clinical Sequencing
28 Nov 2023
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Approximately 1% of clinically treatable tyrosine kinase fusions, including anaplastic lymphoma kinase, neurotrophic tyrosine receptor kinase, RET proto-oncogene, and ROS proto-oncogene 1, have been identified in soft tissue sarcomas via comprehensive genome profiling based on DNA sequencing. Histologic tumor-specific fusion genes have been reported in approximately 20% of soft tissue sarcomas;...
