Khaled A. Tolba MD, MBBCh, assistant professor of medicine, School of Medicine, Oregon Health & Science University, provides data from a study on targeting NRG1 fusions in non—small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).

Recently presented during the 2019 World Conference on Lung Cancer, Tolba’s research shows that afatinib (Gilotrif) has activity in NRG1-fusion positive NSCLC. This adds to other research, however, a study with a larger cohort is suggested for the future.
