Abstract excerpt
KRAS, a significant oncology target, has been challenging to develop drugs for until recent discoveries of KRASG12C mutant-specific covalent inhibitors, including MK-1084. This article describes efforts toward the discovery of KRASG12D mutant-specific inhibitors and how synthetic innovations and structure-based drug design were utilized to facilitate the discovery of pan-KRAS inhibitors.
