|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| NTRK3 | ETV6 | In-frame fusion that results in constitutive activation of the NTRK3 tyrosine kinase domain through heterodimerization and transphosphorylation of the helix-loop-helix domain of ETV6.[1] Breakpoints typically involve exon 5 of ETV6 (NM_001987.4) and exons 14 or 15 of NTRK3 (NM_001243101.1).[2] | t(12;15)(p13;q25) | Common | D, T | Yes (WHO, NCCN) | The ETV6::NTRK3 fusion [t(12;15)] is diagnostic of infantile fibrosarcoma in the appropriate morphology and clinical context.[2][3][4][5] This fusion is found in the majority of infantile fibrosarcoma cases. Studies have demonstrated that this fusion is sensitive to TRK inhibitors.[6][7][8][9][10] |
| NTRK3 | EML4 | In-frame fusion that is predicted to result in constitutive activation of the NTRK3 tyrosine kinase domain through autodimerization of EML4.[1] Breakpoints typically involve exon 2 of EML4 (NM_0019063.4) and exons 14 of NTRK3 (NM_001243101.1).[2] | None | Recurrent | D, T | Yes (WHO) | The EML4::NTRK3 fusion is diagnostic of infantile fibrosarcoma in the appropriate morphology and clinical context.[2][4][11][12] Studies have demonstrated that this fusion is sensitive to TRK inhibitors.[7][9][10] |
| NTRK1 | LMNA, TPM3, SQSTM1, MIR584F1 | In-frame fusion that is predicted to result in constitutive activation of the NTRK1 tyrosine kinase domain likely through dimerization of the 5' fusion partner.[1] | None | Recurrent | D, T | Yes (WHO) | NTRK1 fusions may be diagnostic of infantile fibrosarcoma in the appropriate morphology and clinical context.[11][12][13] Studies have demonstrated that NTRK1 fusions are sensitive to TRK inhibitors.[7][8][9][10] |
| NTRK3 | SPECC1L | In-frame fusion that results in constitutive activation of the NTRK3 tyrosine kinase through heterodimerization and transphosphorylation of the SMC (structural maintenance of chromosomes) domain of SPECC1L. In this case, the breakpoint was in exon 9 of SPECC1L (NM_015330) and exon 13 of NTRK3 (NM_002530) and encompassed the entire tyrosine kinase domain of NTRK3.[14] | None | Rare | D, T | No | A SPECC1L::NTRK3 fusion was reported in a single individual with a large infantile fibrosarcoma of the chest wall. The patient was treated with a TRK inhibitor with excellent clinical response.[14] |
| BRAF | SEPT7, CUX1 | In-frame fusion that is predicted to result in activation of the BRAF tyrosine kinase domain.[12] | None | Rare | D | No | Five individuals with unclassified spindle cell sarcomas with features overlapping infantile fibrosarcoma were identified as having a BRAF rearrangement. BRAF rearrangement was identified by FISH in 3 patients, while a SEPT7::BRAF and CUX1::BRAF fusion were observed in an additional 2 tumors using next generation sequencing.[12] Although BRAF fusions are targetable in other tumor types, the utility of targeted therapy in this setting requires further study. |
| BRAF | Deletion of CR1 domain and tandem duplication within exon 2 | Intragenic gene rearrangement that is predicted to result in a constitutively active form of BRAF due to loss of the negative regulatory Ras-binding domain.[4] | None | Rare | D | No | An intragenic rearrangement within BRAF was identified in a single individual with infantile fibrosarcoma.[4] Although BRAF fusions are targetable in other tumor types, the utility of targeted therapy in this setting requires further study. |
| RET | CLIP2, MYH10 | In-frame fusion that is predicted to result in activation of the BRAF tyrosine kinase domain. All reported cases demonstrated a breakpoint in exon 12 of RET (NM_020975.4), retaining the entire tyrosine kinase domain. | None | Rare | D | No | SIx patients in total have been reported with a tumor demonstrating IFS-like histology and a RET fusion (CLIP2 n=2, MYH10 n=4).[15][16] The utility of RET targeted therapy in this setting requires further study. |
| MET | TFG | In-frame fusion that is predicted to result in constitutive action of the MET tyrosine kinase domain through dimerization of the TFG dimerization domains. In this case, the breakpoint was in exon 7 of TFG and exon 15 of MET and encompassed the entire tyrosine kinase domain of MET.[17] | None | Rare | D | Yes (WHO) | A TFG::MET fusion was reported in a single individual with an unusual infantile spindle cell sarcoma that morphologically resembled infantile fibrosarcoma. MET IHC showed diffuse expression with moderate intensity and RNA expression analysis indicated an intermediate overexpression of MET.[17] |

Genetic Diagnostic Testing Methods
- Fusion testing
- Targeted sequencing (such as RT-PCR or targeted next-generation sequencing (NGS) panels)
- For targeted NGS panels, consider if the assay requires both gene partners to be included on the panel or if it is able to identify novel fusions as long as one of the partners is included on the panel
- Whole transcriptome RNA-sequencing
- Provides an unbiased approach to fusion calling
- Targeted sequencing (such as RT-PCR or targeted next-generation sequencing (NGS) panels)
- Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH)
- Break apart probes for ETV6 and/or NTRK3 will identify a rearrangement (ETV6::NTRK3) present in the majority of infantile fibrosarcoma. Consider other fusion partners is ETV6 FISH is negative.
- Karyotyping
- Can identify the t(12;15) rearrangement as well as other commonly reported aneusomies (i.e. whole chromosome gains of 8, 11, 17, 20)
- DNA sequencing
- Can identify the commonly reported aneusomies if copy number variant calling is performed
