Synthetic lethality targeting LKB1 mutant and EGFR wild type human non-small cell lung cancer cells by glucose starvation and SGLT2 inhibition
2019-04-29
Abstract excerpt
<h4>SUMMARY</h4> In this study, we aimed to discover novel therapeutic approaches targeting non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients without EGFR mutation. First, we found that mutations of EGFR and LKB1 are mutually exclusive in NSCLC. EGFR-WT/LKB1-mutant cells are resistant to EGFR inhibitor erlotinib but are highly susceptible to glucose starvation or SGLT2 inhibitor canagliflozin. Mechanistically, in these...
