NEW YORK (GenomeWeb) – With the upcoming launch of its neurotrophic receptor tyrosine kinase (NTRK) gene fusion assay, liquid biopsy firm Circulogene is continuing to explore the use of reverse-transcriptase PCR to identify drug targets in cell-free enriched RNA.

Its new NTRK1/2/3 Fusion Test identifies up to 20 clinically relevant fusions between NTRK1/2/3 and other genes, which the firm said is important for cancers with a less than one percent NTRK-positive detection rate.
