EGFR Mediates Responses to Small-Molecule Drugs Targeting Oncogenic Fusion Kinases
20 Apr 2017
Abstract excerpt
Abstract Oncogenic kinase fusions of ALK, ROS1, RET, and NTRK1 act as drivers in human lung and other cancers. Residual tumor burden following treatment of ALK or ROS1+ lung cancer patients with oncogene-targeted therapy ultimately enables the emergence of drug-resistant clones, limiting the long-term effectiveness of these therapies. To determine the signaling mechanisms underlying incomplete tumor cell killing...
