KRAS G12A

KRAS mutation subtypes demonstrate varying clinical outcomes. Although no statistically significant differences were observed in overall survival (OS) or progression-free survival (PFS), bone metastases were identified as a significant adverse prognostic factor, nearly doubling the risk of mortality (HR: 2.72, p < 0.001) regardless of KRAS subtype or co-mutation status. These findings underscore the importance of personalized treatment approaches tailored to the genetic profiles of patients with advanced NSCLC.

Although it is uncertain whether the complex karyotype and somatic mutations observed in case 1 and KMT2A rearrangement and variants identified in case 2 may have either independently or cooperatively conferred a poor prognosis, we contend that additional comprehensive studies are needed to further understand the pathophysiology and prognosis of BRAF mutations in AML. We further posit whether patients with BRAF V600E-mutant AML may benefit from the combined use of BRAF inhibitors and/or RAS-pathway-targeting regimens, which are currently FDA-approved for the treatment of BRAF V600-mutant solid tumors and BRAF-mutant histiocytic neoplasms.

KRAS is an attractive therapeutic strategy due to its high prevalence and its role in initiating and sustaining tumour growth. Approval of KRAS G12C inhibitors in locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC has brought hope to many patients. Studies show that non G12C KRAS mutation are found in 53% of adenocarcinomas.

This breakthrough led to the development and approval of sotorasib (AMG510) and adagrasib (MRTX849), revolutionizing the treatment of KRASG12C-dependent lung cancer. Insights from successful KRASG12C targeting informed the design of molecules addressing other mutations, often in a covalent manner. These findings offer promise for innovative approaches in addressing commonly occurring KRAS mutations such as G12D, G12V, G12A, G12S, and G12R in various cancers.

In patients with CRC PM, different KRAS mutation subgroups can be determined according to specific codon substitution, with some mutations (KRASMUT1) that could have a similar prognosis to wild-type patients. These findings should be further investigated in larger series.

Sotorasib showed selective inhibition in vitro and in vivo with altered tumor microenvironment, including fibroblasts and macrophages. Collectively, screening for KRAS single mutations in plasma ctDNA and the use of preclinical models of PDO and PDX with genetic mutations would impact precision medicine in the context of PDAC.

Actionable alterations were identified in 53.4% of the patients, and KRAS was the most common oncogenic driver alteration. Our study revealed a lower prevalence of patients whose tumor harbors ALK, ROS1, and RET fusions, compared with similar data sets.

Furthermore, this phenotype was confirmed by the downregulation of E-cadherin and upregulation of N-cadherin and vimentin. These findings show novel insight into the relationship between PFOS, PFOA, and CRC.

We did not confirm the negative predictive value of KRAS G12 mutation in patients treated with T/T, however, OS depends on the specific G12 mutation. In contrast, patients with KRAS G13 mutation had worse survival.

The circulating VAF of RAS genes enables to split RAS mutant-Low (favorable prognosis similar to RAS/BRAF wild-type) from RAS mutant-High (poorer prognosis similar to BRAF mutant) metastatic colorectal cancer. These results provide further insights into prognostication and therapeutic strategies in patients with RAS mutant metastatic colorectal cancer.
