In this retrospective study, Laura and colleagues evaluated real-world 𝘔𝘌𝘕1 genetic testing practices in patients with neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) over a 12-year period. Their findings reveal moderate adherence to current guideline-based testing recommendations, while also highlighting opportunities to improve the identification of patients with 𝘔𝘌𝘕1 through more standardized risk assessment and endocrine phenotyping.
The study underscores the importance of timely 𝘔𝘌𝘕1 recognition, not only for optimizing patient management and surveillance but also for enabling cascade testing and preventive care for family members at risk.

🎉 Congratulations to our former colleagues on this new publication from their PhD work!
Using patient-derived ROS1-rearranged NSCLC cell lines and computational modelling, this study provides valuable insight into how clinically relevant resistance mutations influence tyrosine kinase inhibitor response.
A great achievement and a valuable contribution to understanding ROS1 tumor biology. Kudos to the entire team! 👏
