The infamous KRAS is a common driver oncogene in NSCLC. In adenocarcinoma of the lung, it accounts for nearly 1/5 – 1/4 of all cases, next only to EGFR positive cases. # V2 F  |4 C0 I$ S5 r, x" c( ]; `

  _" h0 [# `- y8 h7 E. PLack of targeted inhibition made KRAS positive NSCLC a very tough cancer to treat and prognosis rather poor. Fortunately since 2010, this is slowly but surely changing, as more and more inhibitors along the RAS/RAF/MEK/ERK pathway are discovered and made into human trials, with some already showed promising outcomes. 6 D1 \8 x" n4 j3 ~5 e

. r& P9 n* U* W' RI list this one at 1st place, because it is an approved drug, which means you could get it prescribed off label for lung cancer. In 2013, FDA approved it for the treatment of melanoma with BRAF V600 mutated melanoma. RAF, as in BRAF is immediately downstream of (c- or v-) RAS oncogene (as in KRAS) signaling pathway, which in turn passes signal down to MEK kinases, so it is quite relevant to KRAS positive cancer.

8 W8 S7 m, |% i% o; `' P4 \: [Although earlier clinical trials of Trametinib single agent showed its efficacy to be similar to that of chemotherapy agent docetaxel, improvement could come in further biomarker selection and in drug combination. It is said that KRAS G12C mutation in smokers had the best response to Trametinib, so I wonder if commercial gene tests nowadays provide detailed point mutation information. Also since a year ago, GSK started a combination trial using JAK2 inhibitor momelotinib and trametinib. Momelotinib is in phase 3 clinical trial for myelofibrosis, a type of blood cancer. Why does GSK want to inhibit JAK2, which seems has nothing to do with lung cancer? My guess is, momelotinib probably also has strong inhibition on TBK1, TANK-binding kinase 1, which is a component of the NFkB pathway (accidentally relevant to my wustl project in the past). There have been clear indications in the literature that inhibition of TBK1, which cuts off an autocrine cytokine circuit, significantly blocks KRAS driven tumorigenesis. So, if my guess is right, or shall I say, if GSK betted right, we might see a long-legged (or -footed?) improvement in KRAS positive NSCLC therapy. At this point I have not seen or heard any data from GSK’s combo trial of momelotinib and trametinib. / ^* s% `: T% `# X

CDKN2A (p16) inactivation is closely related to CDK4 activation, I believe. This is from ASCO 2014 – “Palbociclib therapy alone was well-tolerated, and stable disease (SD) was achieved in 50% of evaluable patients, suggesting the induction of cellular senescence.”

Abemaciclib in NSCLC (Abstract #8026)
5 F' e, U( C! t5 h! v/ YKRAS genes, when mutated, are known to turn normal cells into cancerous cells. And existing studies suggest that the presence of KRAS mutation in NSCLC patients is indicative of a poor prognosis, which makes this an important area of research.[1] In preclinical research, there was evidence for greater sensitivity to abemaciclib in reducing the growth of cancer cells when used in NSCLC models with KRAS mutations. In the Phase I study, 57 patients with advanced NSCLC who progressed or relapsed after standard treatments were enrolled. The patients enrolled received a median of four prior regimens, 29 patients had KRAS mutations while 24 were KRAS wild-type, and KRAS status was unknown for 4 patients. Patients received abemaciclib twice daily during the study.8 Q, G/ y7 c+ ]2 v2 g$ u+ L6 R; o

Disease control rate – defined as patients demonstrating either a complete response, partial response or stable disease – was 49 percent for patients on abemaciclib, including two partial responses and 26 patients with stable disease.

"The results of the lung cohort of this study – which showed that abemaciclib could decrease tumor size in this patient population – suggest further clinical investigation of abemaciclib as a single agent for the treatment of NSCLC is warranted, with a particular focus on those tumors with KRAS mutations."

The four most common gene mutations that occur in lung cancer include KRAS, TP53, STK11, and EGFR, These are often what make those cancers treatment-resistant. As a result, it’s far more difficult to choose the right therapy for lung cancers with genetic mutations.

: ~9 c) k- q  f' C( cPast research has focused on EGFR mutation treatments, but not much has been developed to target the KRAS mutation. Lung cancers in general have about a 54 percent survival rate of five years — but only if the cancer is detected early, when it’s localized in the lungs. According to the new research, only about 2 percent of lung cancer survivors live past the five-year mark.2 t+ F- G7 s" q. i

For the study, the researchers examined non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cells, and applied a KRAS-targeting drug to them. They found that some cells were more resistant to the drug than others, and that a certain other mutation called p16 contributed to their resistance. In addition, after reviewing lung-cancer patient genotypes, the authors found that people who had the p16 mutation were less likely to survive, compared to those without the mutation.

(PHILADELPHA) - Although the most common type of lung cancer - non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) - has recently seen major treatment advances in some genetic subtypes, other subtypes continue to evade effective treatment. (New therapies exist for NCCLC patients whose cancers harbor mutations in the ALK or EGFR genes, for example.) Now, a new study in mice has shown that cancers with KRAS-related gene mutations might benefit from a triple therapy with two experimental drugs plus radiation therapy. The results were published [TKTK date] in the journal Clinical Cancer Research.

Although there have been some advances in treating this disease, only two percent of survivors live five years beyond treatment. Drugs have been developed to target the ALK- and EGFR-mutated subtypes, and are to some degree effective, however, one genetic subset, NSCLCs with mutations in the gene KRAS have been resistant to conventional and targeted therapies.3 z& H; M0 T6 j

8 B7 ^0 M6 }# \Here Dr. Lu and colleagues investigated the KRAS-mutant subset in NSCLC cells and found that there was variation within this subset; some were more resistant to a drug that targeted the KRAS gene pathway than others. An additional mutation in a protein called p16 appeared to be responsible for this difference. After scanning a database of lung-cancer patient genotypes, the researchers saw that patients with the p16 mutation had a lower overall survival rate than those without the mutation.7 H* k6 I" u, B3 W! y

In order to help make these resistant KRAS mutants more susceptible to therapy, the researchers combined the KRAS-targeting drug with another drug that would undo the effects of the p16 mutation. Together, Dr. Lu's group showed, the combination of the two drugs make these resistant cancer cells susceptible to radiation treatment. "If you hit one target another can take over.

申请加群了,偶也是KRAS突变者,也是egrh21突变者,很难共存的类型。在寻找防止耐药的可能与大概率,一直在为靶向做准备,我的化疗医生同意并强调:不化疗,要尽快使用特罗凯。今天要进入新的征程,充满了忐忑!
