Discovery of a potent and orally available SOS1 inhibitor with antitumor efficacy in KRAS-mutant colorectal cancers. (PubMed, Bioorg Chem)
In an HCT116 xenograft model, oral administration of SL43 (20 and 40 mg/kg) also significantly suppressed tumor growth (TGI = 57.2% and 74.9%, respectively), outperforming MRTX0902 (60 mg/kg, TGI = 47.1%) with no observable systemic toxicity. In conclusion, SL43 represents a potent and orally bioavailable SOS1 inhibitor that effectively suppresses KRAS signaling and exerts strong antitumor efficacy, highlighting its potential as a promising candidate for KRAS-mutant colorectal cancer.

NGS-Based Mutation Profiling and PD-L1 Expression in NSCLC Patients: A Single-Centre Prospective Analysis. (PubMed, Turk Patoloji Derg)
The study underscores the importance of integrating NGS-based molecular testing with PD-L1 evaluation for personalised management of NSCLC. Distinct patterns of PD-L1 expression across molecular subtypes, particularly lower in EGFR-mutated tumours and higher in KRAS-mutated tumours, underscore the need for tailored therapeutic strategies and informed sequencing of targeted therapies and immunotherapies.

Mapping the mutational terrain of lung adenocarcinoma: A Danish cohort study of 880 patients. (PubMed, Cancer Treat Res Commun)
Lung adenocarcinomas are characterized by a high prevalence of targetable alterations, with KRAS G12C representing the most frequent alteration. KRAS mutation status showed limited prognostic relevance. These findings support routine molecular testing and integration of genomic and clinical data to guide personalized treatment.

3-Aminoisoquinolines inhibit selectively phosphodiesterase 4B in KRAS-mutated colorectal cancer cell lines in-vitro and in-vivo. (PubMed, Anticancer Drugs)
In addition, 089 exhibited good tolerability in a nude mouse HCT-116 xenograft model, but it was less effective at a dose of 40 mg/kg compared with Apremilast at a dose of 30 mg/kg in 8-s day's assay. While 089 had lower in-vivo efficacy than apremilast, its novel 3-aminoisoquinoline scaffold and high tolerability make it a superior candidate for further optimization.

Clinicogenomic Predictors of First-line Immune Checkpoint Inhibitor Outcomes in Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer: A Nationwide CCAT Cohort From Japan. (PubMed, Clin Lung Cancer)
In first-line ICI-treated stage IV NSCLC, KRAS-KEAP1 co-mutation, not KRAS or KEAP1 alone, identifies patients at high risk of early failure, whereas BRAF was associated with longer TTF. These findings highlight the importance of co-mutation profiling and warrant prospective validation with integrative models incorporating PD-L1 and TMB.

This study is the largest longitudinal analysis of KRASM testing conducted in Australia, with significant improvement in testing rates seen over the time period. Rates of KRASM and characteristics of Australian KRAS mt patients correspond with published literature.

Targeted therapeutic strategies in rare subtypes of pancreatic cancer: Histology, molecular profiles, and emerging opportunities. (PubMed, Cancer Treat Rev)
Incorporating a structured diagnostic algorithm that recognizes rare subtypes and integrating comprehensive genomic profiling into routine practice represents a paradigm shift from non-stratified to mechanism-driven therapy in pancreatic cancer. This narrative review summarizes the clinicopathological characteristics, molecular landscapes, and therapeutic opportunities of rare PDAC subtypes, highlighting how precision medicine can reshape prognosis and treatment in a historically hard-to-treat disease.

Circulating Butyrate Attenuates Cetuximab Efficacy in Colorectal Cancer Through EGFR and AMPK-Wip1 Signaling. (PubMed, Drug Des Devel Ther)
Results of subcutaneous tumor and pulmonary metastasis models exhibited a similar conclusion to in vitro experiments. Butyrate reduces cetuximab efficacy in KRAS wild-type colorectal cancer through EGFR and AMPK-Wip1 signaling, and may represent a candidate predictive biomarker for treatment response.

Engineered pistol ribozymes selectively target KRAS G12V with enhanced efficacy by capping modification. (PubMed, Cell Chem Biol)
Furthermore, compared with 3' end nucleotide derivative modifications, 5' end capping is more effective at increasing ribozyme stability and compatibility with in vitro preparations. These features underscore the promising potential of natural pistol ribozymes as advanced therapeutic nucleic acid molecules for targeting KRAS mutation-driven cancers and suggest a generalizable strategy for structure-guided, allele-specific RNA therapeutics.
