HRAS expression predicts Lenvatinib responsiveness in human primary gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumor cells.

Excerpt:
A high expression of HRAS in the tumor tissues compared to the matched healthy tissues significantly correlated with responsiveness of primary cells to Lenvatinib. All 5 non-responder patients showed low expression of HRAS, while of the 6 responder patients, 5 showed a high HRAS expression and only 1 low.
HRAS overexpression predicts response to Lenvatinib treatment in gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumors

Excerpt:
We observed that the overexpression of HRAS in the original tumor tissue compared to the matched healthy tissue significantly correlated with responsiveness of primary cells to lenvatinib (p=.048)….Lenvatinib appears to be a highly effective drug for the treatment of NETs. The evaluation of HRAS expression in the tumor tissue might improve patient selection and optimize therapeutic outcome.
