KaCrole Higgins was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2020. “In May 2020, I found a lump in my breast. I cried. By June, it was diagnosed as breast cancer, triple positive, stage 1A. While getting this cancer diagnosis was devastating, it also became an opportunity. Suddenly, the cancer gave me clarity. It gave me clarity about what was important, what was good in my life, what was toxic in my life, and what I needed to do.” Click below to read more of KaCrole’s story |
If Landon Ryan had been diagnosed with bilateral retinoblastoma 10, 20 or 30 years ago, she might not be here today with nearly perfect vision.Thanks to recent improvements in the treatment for this rare form of cancer that almost exclusively affects children under the age of 5, the diagnosis had the power to change Landon’s life when she was 11 months old, but not to take it — or her eyesight.

Study to Learn More About the Safety and Effectiveness of the Drug VITRAKVI During Routine Use in Patients With TRK Fusion Cancer Which is Locally Advanced or Spread From the Place Where it Started to Other Places in the Body
Multiple Cancer Types
In this observational study researcher want to learn more about the effectiveness of drug
VITRAKVI (generic name: larotrectinib) and how well the drug is tolerated during routine use
in patients with TRK fusion cancer which is locally advanced or spread from the place where
it started to other places in the body. TRK fusion cancer is a term used to describe a
variety of common and rare cancers that are caused by a change to the NTRK (Neurotrophic
Tyrosine Kinase) gene called a fusion. During this fusion, an NTRK gene joins together, or
fuses, with a different gene. This joining results in the activation of certain proteins (TRK
fusion proteins), which can cause cancer cells to multiply and form a tumor. VITRAKVI is an
approved drug that blocks the action of the NTRK gene fusion. This study will enroll adult
and paediatric patients suffering from a solid tumor with NTRK gene fusion for whom the
decision to treat their disease with VITRAKVI has been made by their treating physicians.
During the study, patients' medical information such as treatment information with VITRAKVI,
other medication or treatments, changes in disease status and other health signs and symptoms
will be collected within the normal medical care by the treating doctor. Participants will be
observed over a period from 24 to 60 months.

Studying Health Outcomes after Treatment in Patients with Retinoblastoma, RIVERBOAT Study
Multiple Cancer Types
This trial studies health outcomes after treatment in patients with retinoblastoma. Gathering health information over time from patients and family members through vision assessments, samples of tissue and saliva, and questionnaires may help doctors learn more about what causes retinoblastoma, identify long-term health outcomes for patients with retinoblastoma, and find out which therapies may be the best for treating retinoblastoma.
