A PP2A molecular glue overcomes ras/mapk inhibitor resistance in kras-mutant non-small cell lung cancer

The effectiveness of RAS/MAPK inhibitors in treating metastatic KRAS-mutant NSCLC is often hindered by the development of resistance driven by disrupted negative feedback mechanisms led by phosphatases like PP2A. PP2A is frequently suppressed in lung cancer to maintain elevated RAS/MAPK...

Modeling response to the KRAS-G12C inhibitor AZD4625 in KRASG12C NSCLC patient-derived xenografts reveals insights into primary resistance mechanisms

Background KRASG12C alterations are present in ~13% of lung adenocarcinomas. AZD4625 is a covalent small molecule inhibitor that selectively binds and inhibits GDP-KRASG12C, leading to reduced cell viability and protein signaling responsible for tumor survival in models with this gain-of-function...

Mechanisms of Response and Tolerance to Active RAS Inhibition in KRAS-Mutant Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer

Resistance to inactive state-selective RASG12C inhibitors frequently entails accumulation of RASGTP, rendering effective inhibition of active RAS potentially desirable. Here, we evaluated the antitumor activity of the RAS(ON) multiselective tricomplex inhibitor RMC-7977 and dissected mechanisms of response and tolerance in...

FDA Grants Breakthrough Therapy Designation to Olomorasib in KRAS G12C NSCLC

The FDA has granted breakthrough therapy designation to olomorasib in combination with pembrolizumab (Keytruda) for the treatment of unresectable advanced or metastatic non–small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) harboring a KRAS G12C mutation and PD-L1 expression ≥50%.1 This designation is supported...
