MGST1 facilitates novel KRASG12D inhibitor resistance in KRASG12D-mutated pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma by inhibiting ferroptosis. (PubMed, Mol Med)
Our data showed that KRASG12D inhibitor MRTX1133 combined with PKF-118-310 could enhance the effectiveness of MRTX1133 treatment response through induction of ferroptosis via inhibiting MGST1 expression in MRTX1133-resistant PDAC cells and tumors. This evidence may provide a promising strategy to overcome KRASG12D inhibitor MRTX1133 resistance in PDAC patients with KRASG12D mutations.

Exploration of Cryptic Pockets Using Enhanced Sampling Along Normal Modes: A Case Study of KRAS G12D. (PubMed, J Chem Inf Model)
These methods have been applied as a proof-of-concept to KRAS and have shown they can predict known cryptic binding sites. Furthermore, we performed ligand-binding simulations of a known inhibitor (MRTX1133) to shed light on the nature of cryptic pockets in KRASG12D and the role of conformational selection vs induced-fit mechanism in the formation of these cryptic pockets.

Synergistic anti-tumor activity, reduced pERK, and immuno-stimulatory cytokine profiles with 5-FU or ONC212 plus KRAS G12D inhibitor MRTX1133 in CRC and pancreatic cancer cells independent of G12D mutation. (PubMed, Am J Cancer Res)
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.

Targeting KRAS-mutant pancreatic cancer through simultaneous inhibition of KRAS, MEK, and JAK2. (PubMed, Mol Oncol)
Analyses of sotorasib- and MRTX1133-resistant cells showed that trametinib plus fedratinib reversed the resistance to sotorasib or MRTX1133. These findings suggest that the JAK2-mediated pathway and reactivation of the MAPK pathway may play key roles in resistance to KRAS inhibitors in pancreatic cancers. Accordingly, simultaneous inhibition of KRAS, MEK, and JAK2 could be an innovative therapeutic strategy against KRAS-mutant pancreatic cancer.

Macroautophagy/autophagy promotes resistance to KRASG12D-targeted therapy through glutathione synthesis. (PubMed, Cancer Lett)
Consequently, genetic interventions (utilizing ATG5 or BECN1 knockout) or pharmacological inhibition of autophagy (with chloroquine, bafilomycin A1, or spautin-1) enhance the anticancer activity of MRTX1133 in vitro and in various animal models (subcutaneous, patient-derived xenograft, and orthotopic). Moreover, the release of histones by apoptotic cells triggers an adaptive immune response when combining an autophagy inhibitor with MRTX1133 in immunocompetent mice. These findings establish a new strategy to overcome KRASG12D-targeted therapy resistance by inhibiting autophagy-dependent glutathione synthesis.

Mechanisms of resistance to oncogenic KRAS inhibition in pancreatic cancer. (PubMed, Cancer Discov)
Among patients with KRASG12C-mutant PDAC treated with adagrasib or sotorasib, mutations in PIK3CA and KRAS, and amplifications of KRASG12C, MYC, MET, EGFR, and CDK6 emerged at acquired resistance. In PDAC cell lines and organoid models treated with the KRASG12D inhibitor MRTX1133, epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition and PI3K-AKT-mTOR signaling associate with resistance to therapy...Combination treatment with KRASG12D inhibition and chemotherapy significantly improved tumor control in PDAC mouse models. Collectively, these data elucidate co-evolving resistance mechanisms to KRAS inhibition and support multiple combination therapy strategies.

Inhibition of GTPase KRASG12D: a review of patent literature. (PubMed, Expert Opin Ther Pat)
Since the approval of AMG510 (Sotorasib), there has been an increasing focus on the inhibition of KRASG12D, leading to numerous reports of related inhibitors and degraders. Among them, MRTX1133, as the first KRASG12D inhibitor to enter clinical trials, has demonstrated excellent tumor suppression in various KRASG12D-bearing human tumor xenograft models. It is important to note, however, that understanding the mechanisms of acquired resistance caused by KRAS inhibition and developing additional combination therapies is crucial. Moreover, seeking covalent inhibition of KRASG12D also holds significant potential.

Targeting KRAS in pancreatic cancer. (PubMed, Oncol Res)
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.

Site-Specific Mutagenesis Screening in KRASG12D Mutant Library to Uncover Resistance Mechanisms to KRASG12D Inhibitors. (PubMed, Cancer Lett)
We observed that secondary mutations in KRASG12D can lead to acquired resistance to MRTX1133 and BI-2865, a novel pan-KRAS inhibitor, in human cancer cell lines. This evidence is critical for devising new strategies to counteract resistance mechanisms and, ultimately, enhance treatment outcomes in patients with KRASG12D-mutant cancers.

The extracellular niche and tumor microenvironment enhance KRAS inhibitor efficacy in pancreatic cancer. (PubMed, Cancer Res)
Further investigation of the immunological response using single-cell sequencing and multispectral imaging revealed that tumor regression was associated with suppression of neutrophils and influx of effector CD8+ T cells. Together, these findings demonstrate that both tumor cell-intrinsic and extrinsic events contribute to response to MRTX1133 and credential KRASG12D inhibition as a promising therapeutic strategy for a large percentage of PDAC patients.

A small molecule with big impact: MRTX1133 targets the KRASG12D mutation in pancreatic cancer. (PubMed, Clin Cancer Res)
The recent approval of sotorasib (AMG510), a small-molecule, covalent, and selective KRASG12C inhibitor, for treating patients with non-small cell lung cancer represents a breakthrough in KRAS targeted therapy. Additionally, we discuss potential challenges and future directions for MRTX1133 therapy for PDAC, including overcoming intrinsic and acquired drug resistance, developing effective combination therapies, and improving MRTX1133's oral bioavailability and target spectrum. The promising results obtained from preclinical studies suggest that MRTX1133 could revolutionize the treatment of PDAC, bring about a paradigm shift in its management.

Dual inhibition of KRASG12D and pan-ERBB is synergistic in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma. (PubMed, Cancer Res)
Indeed, the irreversible pan-ERBB inhibitor, afatinib, potently synergized with MRTX1133 in vitro, and cancer cells with acquired resistance to MRTX1133 in vitro remained sensitive to this combination therapy. Finally, the combination of MRTX1133 and afatinib led to tumor regression and longer survival in orthotopic PDAC mouse models. These results suggest that dual inhibition of ERBB and KRAS signaling may be synergistic and circumvent the rapid development of acquired resistance in patients with KRAS mutant pancreatic cancer.

Mutant-specific pharmacological inhibition of KRAS in multiple myeloma and functional genomics studies to identify mechanisms regulating myeloma cell response vs. resistance to KRAS inhibition. (IMW 2023)
MRTX1257 predominantly reduced proliferation of XG7 cells, whereas MRTX1133 led to potent cell death induction of KARPAS620 and KP6 cells. Combinations of MRTX1257 with investigational or established anti-MM drugs, including melphalan, bortezomib or pomalidomide, led to no antagonism and in some cases – including combination with MEKi trametinib – caused supra-additive effects... This study documents mutant-specific activity of KRAS G12C and G12D inhibitors in MM cells and provides functional insights into the pharmacological inhibition of KRAS in MM. Ongoing in vitro and in vivo studies are examining the targeting of genes/pathways associated with escape from KRAS inhibition, as a framework for future efforts to improve the rates, depth and durability of responses to KRAS inhibition in MM.

Feedback activation of EGFR/wild-type RAS signaling axis limits KRAS inhibitor efficacy in KRAS-mutated colorectal cancer. (PubMed, Oncogene)
Blockade of activated EGFR with clinically used antibodies or kinase inhibitors suppressed the EGFR/wild-type RAS signaling axis, sensitized MRTX1133 monotherapy, and caused the regression of KRAS-mutant CRC organoids and cell line-derived xenografts. Overall, this study uncovers feedback activation of EGFR as a prominent molecular event that restricts KRAS inhibitor efficacy and establishes a potential combination therapy consisting of KRAS and EGFR inhibitors for patients with KRAS-mutated CRC.

Combination of 5-FU plus KRAS G12D inhibitor MRTX1133 against human colorectal and pancreatic cancer cells and the affects on inhibition of pERK and immune-stimulatory cytokine patterns in in KRAS G12D and KRAS G12V tumor cells. (ASCO 2023)
Our studies reveal strong synergy between MRTX1133 & 5-FU in human pancreatic & colon cancer models at much lower than IC50 dosage which is important for avoiding side effects. This is the first description that effect of KRAS G12D inhibitor MRTX1133 is active on KRAS G12V. The surprising synergy in KRAS G12V samples with combination therapy and the important synergistic change in cytokine patterns suggests potential strong immune stimulatory anti-cancer effects of MRTX1133 & 5FU against mCRC and pancreatic cancer cells regardless of KRAS G12D mutation which should be considered when including patients with respective mutations in clinical trials.
