Driver vs. passenger: Primary resistance to larotrectinib in synovial sarcoma harboring concurrent SS18 rearrangement and PDE3A-NTRK2 fusion

Synovial sarcoma (SS) is molecularly defined by the pathognomonic SS18::SSX fusion, a master epigenetic driver. While NTRK gene fusions are high-priority tissue-agnostic targets for TRK inhibitors like larotrectinib, their co-occurrence with established lineage-defining drivers in sarcomas is exceptionally rare and presents a therapeutic paradox.

Quality indicators in identification and care of patients with genetic predisposition to cancer: An AIFET proposal

Hereditary cancer genetics is increasingly recognized as an integral component of cancer care, contributing to treatment, early detection, and risk reduction strategies for patients and their relatives. In this context, several hereditary cancer programs, databases, recommendations, and guidelines have been implemented within the Italian National Health System and at hospital level.
