Larotrectinib sulfate is primarily used in the treatment of cancers that are caused by specific genetic mutations, particularly those involving NTRK gene fusions. It is effective in targeting and inhibiting the activity of TRK proteins, which are involved in the growth and spread of cancer cells. This medication is approved for use in both pediatric and adult patients, making it a versatile option for a wide range of ages. It is particularly beneficial for patients with solid tumors that have no other effective treatment options. The drug is administered orally, providing a convenient treatment method for patients. Common side effects include fatigue, nausea, dizziness, and increased liver enzymes, but it is generally well-tolerated. Larotrectinib sulfate represents a significant advancement in precision medicine, offering hope for patients with rare and difficult-to-treat cancers.
