    Title:

    Resistance to anti-HER2 therapy associated with the TSC2 nonsynonymous variant c.4349 C > G (p.Pro1450Arg) is reversed by CDK4/6 inhibitor in HER2-positive breast cancer

    Excerpt:
    In in vitro and xenograft models, palbociclib+lapatinib shows higher anti-tumor activity than monotherapy and overcomes the resistance of the TSC2 c.4349 C > G-related variant to anti-HER2 therapy. We reveal a new mechanism of resistance to anti-HER2 therapy and provide a strategy to increase the efficiency of anti-HER2 therapy in HER2-positive breast cancer.
