...lifirafenib (BGB-283) shows strong synergistic effect with MEK inhibitor mirdametinib (PD-0325901) in suppressing proliferation of K-RAS-mutated cancer cell lines. This synergistic effect was not observed using vemurafenib, a first-generation B-RAFV600E selective inhibitor. Mechanistic analysis revealed that RAF dimer inhibition could suppress RAF-dependent MEK reactivation and led to sustained inhibition of MAPK signaling in K-RAS-mutated cells. Furthermore, combination synergy was observed in K-RAS mutant xenograft models.
