In today’s episode, sponsored by Eli Lilly and Company, we had the pleasure of speaking with Eric J. Sherman, MD, a medical oncologist at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, to discuss the prognosis of patients with RET fusion–positive medullary thyroid cancer, the data supporting the regulatory approvals of selpercatinib (Retevmo) and pralsetinib (Gavreto), and future research directions with RET inhibitors in the field.

In our exclusive interview, Sherman discussed the incidence of RET fusions in medullary thyroid cancer and the current clinical landscape of RET inhibitors in the field.
