Effect of EGFR and ERBB2 amplifications and activating alterations on efficacy of lenvatinib in hepatocellular carcinoma. (ASCO-GI 2023)
Our study substantiates EGFR/ERBB2 amplifications and mutations as putative drivers of lenvatinib resistance in patients with HCC and identifies the genetic mechanisms for EGFR pathway activation in refractory cancers. EGFR/ERBB2 alterations may thus represent predictive and pharmacodynamic markers of lenvatinib resistance. These findings lend support to the use of EGFR inhibitors combined with lenvatinib in previously untreated or lenvatinib refractory cancers.
