Abstract excerpt
KRAS -mutant non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) remains a major therapeutic challenge due to the paucity of effective targeted agents. Although covalent KRAS^G12C inhibitorsi such as sotorasib and adagrasib have demonstrated clinical activity, pooled analyses indicate only modest response rates and short progression-free survival, with no effective options for non-G12C subtypes. This highlights the need for novel...
