Abstract excerpt
The Kirsten rat sarcoma (KRAS) oncogene was "undruggable" until sotorasib, a KRASG12C selective inhibitor, was developed with promising efficacy. However, inhibition of mutant KRAS in colorectal cancer cells (CRC) is ineffective due to feedback activation of MEK/ERK downstream of KRAS. In this study, we screened for combination therapies of simultaneous inhibition to overcome sotorasib resistance using our...
