Abstrakt: Pediatric-type high-grade gliomas frequently harbor gene fusions involving receptor tyrosine kinase genes, including neurotrophic tyrosine kinase receptor (NTRK) fusions. Clinically, these tumors show high initial response rates to tyrosine kinase inhibition but ultimately recur due to the accumulation of additional resistance-conferring mutations. Here, we develop a series of genetically engineered mouse models of treatment-naive and -experienced NTRK1/2/3 fusion-driven gliomas. All tested NTRK fusions are oncogenic in vivo. The NTRK variant, N-terminal fusion partners, and resistance-associated point mutations all influence tumor histology and aggressiveness. Additional tumor suppressor losses greatly enhance tumor aggressiveness. Treatment with TRK kinase inhibitors significantly extends the survival of NTRK fusion-driven glioma mice, but fails to fully eradicate tumors, leading to recurrence upon treatment discontinuation. Finally, we show that ERK activation promotes resistance to TRK kinase inhibition and identify MEK inhibition as a potential combination therapy. These models will be invaluable tools to study therapy resistance of NTRK fusion tumors.
