We are looking for anyone who would be willing to share their experience of the NTRK fusion positive mutation (Neurotrophic tropomyosin receptor kinase ) who are living within the UK.

As this is a rare mutation, where less than 1% have this; it is important to capture how this directly affects the person and provide an understanding within the health care system how to better support those with this cancer.

Would you be interested in chatting about your experience to better inform the health care professionals?

If you have this mutation and are interested in sharing please email marketing@roycastle.org and they will be in contact with you.

This would be greatly appreciated.
