Inclusion Criteria:
* Diagnosis of cancer with RET mutant (medullary thyroid cancer \[MTC\] or multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2 \[MEN2\] tumors) or RET fusion (solid tumors) advanced/metastatic tumors that have become refractory to RET selective tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) treatment, who are not eligible or able to participate in an ongoing LOXO-260 clinical trial and are medically suitable for treatment with LOXO-260.
* Patients tumor must have developed RET solvent front mutations (eg G810X) after RET selective treatment.
* Have progressed or are intolerant to standard therapy, or no standard therapy option exists, or in the opinion of the investigator, are unlikely to derive significant clinical benefit from standard therapy
* Have adequate organ function
* Patients must reside in a country where the LOXO-NGR-21001 study (NCT05241834) is not open or recruiting.
Exclusion Criteria:
* Currently enrolled in an ongoing clinical study of LOXO-260 or another second generation RET inhibitor
* Clinically significant active cardiovascular disease or history of myocardial infarction within 6 months prior to study treatment; ongoing cardiomyopathy; or current prolongation of the QT interval corrected for heart rate using Fridericia's formula (QTcF) interval greater than 470 milliseconds

Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?

Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
