Variant-specific PCR was performed for 744 tumors with a normal 5′/3′-end expression ratio: there were no rearrangements in 172 EGFR/ALK/ROS1/RET/MET-negative lung cancers and 125 pediatric tumors, while NTRK3 fusions were detected in 2/447 (0.5%) non-lung adult malignancies. This evidence concerns the gene NTRK3 and lung carcinoma.
