Identification of targetable fusions as oncogenic drivers in non-small cell lung cancer has transformed its diagnostic and therapeutic paradigm. In a recent article in Nature, Izumi et al. report the discovery of CLIP1-LTK fusion as a novel oncogenic driver in lung cancer, targetable using the ALK tyrosine kinase inhibitor lorlatinib.
鉴定非小细胞肺癌中的可靶向融合作为致癌驱动因子已经改变了其诊断和治疗模式。在最近发表在《自然》杂志上的一篇文章中,Izumi 等人报道了 CLIP1-LTK 融合作为肺癌中新的致癌驱动因子的发现,该融合可以使用 ALK 酪氨酸激酶抑制剂 lorlatinib 进行靶向治疗。
