Non–Small-Cell Lung Cancer and Ba/F3 Transformed Cells Harboring the ERBB2 G776insV_G/C Mutation Are Sensitive to the Dual-Specific Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor and ERBB2 Inhibitor HKI-272

Abstract excerpt

Mutation-specific cancer therapy has shown promising clinical efficacy. In non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC), the presence of mutations in the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase correlates with clinical response to small-molecule tyrosine kinase inhibitors. Here, we show that cells harboring the G776insV_G/C mutation in the related ERBB2 tyrosine kinase (also known as HER2 or Neu), present...
