KRAS G12V

This suggests a potential mechanism explaining the increased sensitivity of CRC cells harboring a KRAS-activated pathway to acetate. These findings contribute to a clearer understanding of how KRAS regulate BAX function, a relevant aspect in tumor progression.

The Agena iPlex HS Lung Panel on the MassARRAY System is highly tolerant of poor quantity and quality DNA, recovering and delivering accurate results on samples that would otherwise fail NGS-based analysis.

Recently, an emergency approval from the US-FDA has been issued for KRASG12C inhibitors (sotorasib and adagrasib) for metastatic lung cancer treatment. Moreover, because KRASG12D and KRASG12V are more common than KRASG12C, focus must be placed on the therapeutic strategies for this type of patient, along with sustained efforts in research on these targets. In the present review, we try to focus on various strategies to overcome rapid resistance through the use of combinational treatments to improve the activity of KRASG12C inhibitors.

KRAS-mut represents a genotypically distinct group of ECs. Overlap exists with genomic predictors (TMB-high, MSI-high) of immunotherapy response, suggesting a possible biomarker-driven combination option with immunotherapy. Clinical trials to evaluate these strategies should be developed.

Notably, patients harboring the G12C variant responded favorably to sotorasib medication. These results underscore the importance of mutational profiling and targeted therapeutic approaches in managing NSCLC, particularly highlighting the promising efficacy of sotorasib in G12C-mutated cases.

The TCRs were derived from healthy donors or patients with pancreatic cancer who had received a vaccine against mutant KRAS. The most promising TCRs warrant testing in patients with KRAS G12V-positive cancers.

LLS30 effectively disrupts the Gal-1/Ras interaction, resulting in significant anti-tumor and anti-metastatic effects in MPNST models. These findings indicated that targeting Gal-1 with LLS30 offers a promising therapeutic approach for treating MPNSTs and may also be applicable to other malignancies where Gal-1 and Ras are key oncogenic drivers.

Throughout treatment, KRAS ctDNA is detectable by ddPCR in patients with localized PDAC treated with NAC. Detection of mutant KRAS G12V after resection was associated with reduced OS.

In contrast, patients with detected KRAS G12R in the tissue survived nearly twice as long as other patients in the aggregate (286 days, 95% CI: 70-602 vs. 162 days, 95% CI: 122-600, p = 0.0374) or patients with other KRAS mutations (286 days, 95% CI: 70-602 vs. 137 days, 95% CI: 107-600, p = 0.0257). Differentiation of specific KRAS mutations in EUS-FNB and ctDNA (above all, the crucial G12D and G12R) is feasible in routine management of PDAC patients and imperative for assessment of prognosis.

ARMS-HRMA is a rapid and cost-effective method for detecting KRAS mutations in PDAC patients, offering the potential for stratifying prognosis and guiding treatment decisions. The presence of G12D and G12C mutations in both tumor and plasma is associated with a poorer prognosis.

Increased TMB was observed in cases of KRAS and BRAF mutation combined with APC single mutation; furthermore, the expression of TMB in G12V was the highest, and G12D presented the lowest TMB in single KRAS-mutant subtypes or the combination with APC mutations. The TMB driven by KRAS co-mutations may have the potential to be used as a key biomarker for prediction of treatment outcomes of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) in patients with CRC, especially with APC co-mutation.

We investigated cell viability, drug synergies, pERK suppression and cytokine, chemokine or growth factor alterations following treatment with 5-Fluorouracil (5-FU) or ONC212 plus MRTX1133 in 6 human CRC and 4 human pancreatic cancer cell lines. Our studies reveal preclinical activity of MRTX1133 alone or synergies when combined with 5-FU or ONC212 against mCRC and pancreatic cancer cells regardless of KRAS G12D mutation. The results suggest that KRAS G12V and KRAS G13D should be further considered in clinical trials including combination therapies involving MRTX1133 and 5-FU or ONC212.

ADT-1004 demonstrated superior efficacy over sotorasib and adagrasib in tumor models involving human PDAC cells resistant to these KRAS G12C inhibitors. As a pan-RAS inhibitor, ADT-1004 has broad activity and potential efficacy advantages over allele-specific KRAS inhibitors by averting resistance. These findings support clinical trials of ADT-1004 for KRAS mutant PDAC.

To the best of our knowledge, this is the first successful case of KRAS-mutation patient with TGCT who achieved partially and sustained disease remission by combining immune checkpoint inhibitors with chemotherapy. This case provides an excellent example for personalized treatment of metastatic TGCTs.

This platform is significantly faster, relatively cheaper, has superior sensitivity and specificity, and does not require any high-end equipment. To conclude, this method has the potential to be translated into clinical settings for the detection of mutations in diverse diseases and conditions.

Mechanistically, a gene knockout screen to identify mechanism(s) by which tumor cells methylate or demethylate this epitope unveiled SPT6 as a demethylating protein that could be targeted to improve effectiveness of these TCRs. These findings highlight the role of post-translational modifications in immune evasion and suggest that identifying and targeting such modifications should facilitate development of more effective TCR-T cell therapies.

After surgery, TC (Paclitaxel + Carbopratin) + bevacizumab therapy was administered as adjuvant chemotherapy followed by bevacizumab as maintenance therapy. DNA methylation analysis did not show differentially methylated regions. This case suggests that SBT and LGSC may transform into HGSC via p53 dysfunction due to MDM2 amplification.

Initial data suggest worse outcomes to FOLFIRINOX (FFX) compared with gemcitabine nab-paclitaxel (GnP) in basal tumors... SB subtype is a strong independent predictor of worse outcomes, irrespective of mutant KRAS allele or upfront chemotherapy regimen, and tends to remain stable between biopsies in individual patients

Interestingly, HBEC3kts harboring only U2AF1 S34F display increased splicing in stress granule protein genes and viability in cigarette smoke concentrate. Our results suggest that U2AF1 S34F may potentiate transformation by granting precancerous cells survival advantage in environmental stress, permitting accumulation of additional mutations like KRAS G12V , which synergize with U2AF1 S34F to transform the cell.

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.

The cytologic features of this distinctive, indolent neoplasm are important to recognize because patients with papillary renal neoplasm with reverse polarity may be excellent candidates for partial nephrectomy or even active surveillance.

Further, the Markov state modelling analysis confirmed that the mutations, especially G13D imparts rigidity to structure compared to wild type and thus limiting its conformational state in either intermediate state or active state. The study suggests that along with SW-I and SW-II regions, the loop region preceding the α3 helix and α3 helix are also involved in affecting the hydrolysis of nucleotides and may be considered while designing therapeutics against KRAS.

KRAS mutation subtypes exhibit distinct clinical and molecular characteristics and varying responses to immunotherapy. G12C and G12V mutations correlate with better immunotherapy outcomes, while G12D mutations are associated with poorer responses.

Conclusions : In our cohort, KRAS -mutant patients appear to have a different metastatic pattern depending on their KRAS mutation subtype. In addition, KRAS G12C and KRAS G12V -mutant patients seem to have better prognosis and response to chemoimmunotherapy than KRAS G12D -mutant patients.

HLA-G12V/CD3 BiTE in vivo testing showed delayed tumor growth without severe toxicity to major organs and prolonged mouse survival. This study highlights the potential of constructing BiTEs recognizing an HLA-peptide complex and providing a novel therapy for cancer treatment targeting the intracellular tumor antigen.

The patient whose tumor harbored SEC31A::PDGFRA was treated after multiple relapses with imatinib and sunitinib therapy, with progression-free periods of 5 and 2 years, respectively. Despite its bland appearance, myxoid inflammatory myofibroblastic sarcoma harbors a significant risk for disseminated disease, particularly when it occurs in the peritoneum. Targeted therapy could be considered for patients with disseminated disease.

This cohort study found that KRAS allelic variants were relatively common and may be potentially actionable genomic alterations in patients with BTCs, especially perihilar cholangiocarcinoma and extrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma. The findings add to the growing data on genomic and immune landscapes of KRAS allelic variants in BTCs and are potentially of value to the planning of specific therapies for this heterogeneous patient group.

Using a reporter mouse capture real-time ERK signal dynamics at the single-cell level, we discovered that KrasG12D, but not a closely related mutation HrasG12V, converts ERK signal in stem cells from pulsatile to sustained. Finally, we demonstrated that interrupting sustained ERK signal reverts KrasG12D-induced tissue deformation through modulating specific features of cell migration and division.

RAS mutations in gynecologic cancers have a distinct histopathologic distribution and may impact overall survival. PIK3CA, PTEN, and ARID1A are potentially actionable co-alterations. RAS pathway-targeted therapy should be considered.

However, the most common KRAS mutations in PDAC are G12D (44%), G12V (34%) and G12R (20%) that are not amenable to treatment by KRAS G12C-directed cysteine-reactive KRAS inhibitors such as Sotorasib and Adagrasib that exhibit clinical efficacy in lung cancer...Recently, the KRAS G12D-directed MRTX1133 inhibitor has entered clinical trials and more of such inhibitors are in development. The other KRAS mutations may be targeted indirectly via inhibition of the cognate guanosine exchange factor (GEF) Son of Sevenless 1 that drives KRAS. These agents seem to provide the means to target the most frequent KRAS mutations in PDAC and to improve patient outcomes.

This high-affinity TCR mutant, which involved only two amino acid substitutions, display minimal conformational alterations while maintaining a high degree of specificity for the KRASG12V peptide. Our research unveils the molecular mechanisms governing TCR recognition towards KRASG12V neoantigen and yields a range of affinity-enhanced TCR mutants with significant potential for immunotherapy strategies targeting tumors harboring the KRASG12V mutation.

Our case highlights the typical and dynamic changes in imaging features of P-ADC and provides an indicative treatment strategy for KRAS G12V-mutated lung adenocarcinoma.

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.

Furthermore, novel technologies and therapies are being developed to target specific mutant subtypes, with encouraging early results. In this paper, we aim to review the recent studies regarding the relative impact of specific mutant KRAS subtypes on oncologic outcomes, the application of variant allele frequency in next generation sequencing analyses, and the ongoing research into therapies targeting specific mutant KRAS subtypes.

These proteins are captured through the strong interaction between the biotin label and streptavidin bead and subsequently identified by mass spectrometry. Here, we developed a protocol using CRISPR-mediated gene editing to generate endogenous BioID2-tagged KrasG12D and KrasG12V isogenic murine colon epithelial cell lines to identify unique protein proximity partners by BioID.

Halo, vacuole, angiogram, and dead branch signs were frequently observed in consolidative-type IMA. Kirsten rat sarcoma viral oncogene mutations are common in consolidative-type IMA, especially site G12V, whereas epidermal growth factor receptor mutations were rare; therefore, gene immunotherapy was more difficult. Most patients were in stage T3-T4; however, lymph node metastasis was rare.

Meanwhile, mannose-binding lectin (rRSL [Ralstonia solanacearum] and rBC2LA [Burkholderia cenocepacia]) signals were higher while those of galactose-binding lectins (rGal3C and rCGL2) were lower in the KRAS mutants. We demonstrated here that PDAC 3D-cultured organoids with KRAS mutations were dominantly covered in increased fucosylated glycans, pointing towards novel treatment targets and/or tumor markers.

KRAS G12V mutation was associated with aggressive clinical-pathological phenotype and early recurrence. To note, this mutation exhibited significantly worse prognosis in part-solid and stage Ⅰ lung adenocarcinoma patients. Meanwhile, the prognostic significance of KRAS G12C and G12V variants were comparable.

Accordingly, we have tested FTIs (tipifarnib and lonafarnib) in G12C mutant human cancer cell lines in vitro and in vivo. At last, we have also tested FTIs on G12V mutant human cancer cells and again we have detected antitumoral effects. We suggest that FTIs may have clinical relevance outside the HRAS mutant cancers.
