Abstract excerpt
The clinical effect of KRAS G12C inhibitors (G12Ci) as monotherapy is poor, prompting the development of combination treatment strategies. Here, we demonstrate that the WEE1 kinase inhibitor (WEE1i), Adavosertib, can sensitize the effect of G12Ci through the MYBL2-RRM2 axis, which is associated with poor prognosis in lung cancer. Overexpressing the MYBL2-RRM2 axis or supplementing the products of the RRM2 enzyme,...
