In patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), the objective response rate (ORR, unconfirmed) is 58.33%, and in patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) the ORR (unconfirmed) was 33.33% in the 1000-1200mg cohort. This study supports the clinical potential of RNK08954 in patients with KRAS G12D mutation either as a single agent or in combination.
While KRAS was historically considered undruggable, mutant-specific inhibitors, including non-covalent KRAS G12D inhibitor MRTX1133, have emerged...Efficacy in patient-derived organoids was comparable. This study demonstrates the potential of this nanomedicine platform for targeted delivery of KRAS mutant-specific inhibitors to human tumors.
KRAS inhibitors, including KRAS G12D inhibitor MRTX1133, are promising therapeutics against KRAS-mutated pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), but drug resistance limits their efficacy. Our study reveals that robust induction of apoptosis using a combination of BCL-xL PROTAC degrader and an mTOR inhibitor, significantly enhances MRTX1133 efficacy in PDAC models without increasing toxicity to normal tissues.
In murine models of MRTX1133-resistant PDAC, BET inhibition cooperated with MRTX1133 to markedly extend overall survival. As BET inhibitors are currently under clinical testing, the combination of MRTX1133 and BET inhibitors warrants further investigation, particularly in tumors that have developed resistance to KRAS inhibition.

RAS inhibitors MRTX1133 and RMC-6236 alter Switch-I/II conformations, thereby blocking SKP assembly more effectively than they disrupt preformed complexes. This MRAS mutant can form an SMP complex, but MRTX1133 blocks its assembly, demonstrating the feasibility of dual SKP and SMP targeting. Overall, our findings define isoform-specific differences in SHOC2-RAS-PP1C complex formation and support a strategy to prevent both SKP and SMP assemblies to overcome resistance in RAS-driven cancers.
KRAS mutations and hyperglycaemia drive O-GlcNAcylation of CLDN18.2 at its C-terminal T204 site. O-GlcNAcylated CLDN18.2 promotes poor prognosis and reduces the effectiveness of CLDN18.2-targeted therapies. Low dose MRTX1133 restores CLDN18.2 membrane localisation by reducing its O-GlcNAcylation and augments CLDN18.2-targeted therapy efficacy, offering a novel combinatorial strategy for KRAS-mutant PDAC.
While historically considered undruggable, recent breakthroughs have seen the FDA approval of two potent KRAS G12C inhibitors, sotorasib (AMG510) and adagrasib (MRTX849)...To elucidate mechanisms of acquired resistance, we generated a panel of resistant cell lines to the allele-specific KRAS inhibitors MRTX849 and MRTX1133 and observed an increased activation of the PDK1 and YAP1/TEAD signaling pathways...Furthermore, overexpression studies revealed that forced expression of either PDK1 or YAP1 led to increased resistance to KRAS inhibition in the sensitive lines. Taken together, our findings suggest that co-targeting PDK1 or YAP1/TEAD might be a potential approach to overcoming resistance to KRAS inhibition in NSCLC.
