A newborn with a large NTRK fusion positive infantile fibrosarcoma successfully treated with larotrectinib.

Infantile fibrosarcoma (IFS) is a rare pediatric cancer that typically presents early in life. Surgical resection is commonly curative; however, resection is sometimes not possible requiring additional multimodal treatment. IFS commonly harbors a fusion in one of the neurotrophic receptor tyrosine kinase (NTRK) genes. Larotrectinib, a highly selective inhibitor of tropomyosin receptor kinase (TRK), has been shown to be well tolerated and effective in children as young as 1-month old. We report a case of IFS in a newborn treated with larotrectinib. The patient experienced a rapid clinical and radiographic response demonstrating the potential to treat newborns with larotrectinib.
