Abstract Text Medullary thyroid cancer (MTC) harbors frequent mutations in RET oncogene. Selective RET inhibitors (RETi) have emerged as effective treatments. However, resistance almost invariably occurs.MTC patients who were initiated on RETi between 2018 and 2022 were included. Baseline characteristics, RET mutational status, RETi response, available tumor tissue and molecular profiles sampled pre- and post-RETi were analyzed.Among 46 MTC patients on RETi during the study period, 26 patients had discontinued at data cut-off because of progression (n = 16), death (n = 4), and toxicity (n = 6). The most frequent RET mutations at baseline were p.M918T (n = 29), and p.C634X (n = 6). Pre- and post-RETi molecular profiles were available in 14 patients. There was no primary resistance on pre-RETi samples. Post-RETi profiles revealed a bypass mechanism of resistance in 75% of the cases including RAS genes mutations (50%), FGFR2 and ALK fusions and and MYC p.P44L. RET solvent from and hinge region mutations was the only resistance mechanisms in 25% of the cases. Tumor samples from initial thyroidectomy, pre- and post-RETi, from six patients, showed an increase of the mean Ki 67-index of 7%, 17% and 40% respectively (P = 0.037) and a more aggressive poorly differentiated histology in three patients.Bypass resistance may be the most frequent mechanism of progression under RETi. A more aggressive histology may arise following RETi and warrants further investigation.

Filtering

  • Case insensitive filtering will display rows if any text in any cell matches the filter term
  • Use simple literal full or partial string matches
  • Separate multiple filter terms with a space. Any order may be used (i. e. a b c and c b a are equivalent )
  • Filtering will only apply to rows that are already loaded on the page. Filtering has no impact on query parameters.
  • Use quotes to match on a longer phrase with spaces (i.e. "mtor c1483f")

Sorting

  • Generally, the default sort order for tables is set to be first column ascending; however, specific tables may set a different default sort order.
  • Click on any column header arrows to sort by that column
  • Hold down the Shift key and click multiple columns to sort by more than one column. Be sure to set ascending or descending order for a given column before moving on to the next column.
