NC Registry

NC Registry NUT midline carcinoma (NMC) is a rare and aggressive human cancer defined by rearrangements of the gene NUT.

The majority of NMCs cases are attributed to the fusion of the NUT gene to either BRD4 or BRD3, creating chimeric genes that encode BRD-NUT fusion proteins. In the remaining cases, NUT is fused to an unknown partner gene; these tumors are termed NUT-variant. Our NMC Registry team collects clinical data regarding response to various treatments, which may facilitate future therapeutic strategies.
