Title KRAS and EGFR Amplifications Mediate Resistance to Rociletinib and Osimertinib in Acquired Afatinib-Resistant NSCLC Harboring Exon 19 Deletion/T790M in EGFR.
URL
Abstract Text The critical T790M mutation in EGFR, which mediates resistance to first- and second-generation EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI; gefitinib, erlotinib, and afatinib), has facilitated the development of third-generation mutation-selective EGFR TKIs (rociletinib and osimertinib). We previously reported heterogeneous afatinib-resistant mechanisms, including emergence of T790M-EGFR, and responses to third-generation EGFR TKIs. Here, we used afatinib-resistant lung adenocarcinoma cells [AfaR (formerly AFR3) cells], carrying exon 19 deletion/T790M in EGFR To identify the novel resistance mechanisms in post-afatinib treatment, RocR1/RocR2 and OsiR1/OsiR2 cells were established using increasing concentrations of rociletinib and osimertinib, respectively. Attenuation of exon 19 deletion and T790M was confirmed in both rociletinib-resistant cells; in addition, EGFR and KRAS amplification was observed in RocR1 and RocR2, respectively. Significant KRAS amplification was observed in the osimertinib-resistant cell lines, indicating a linear and reversible increase with increased osimertinib concentrations in OsiR1 and OsiR2 cells. OsiR1 cells maintained osimertinib resistance with KRAS amplification after osimertinib withdrawal for 2 months. OsiR2 cells exhibited KRAS attenuation, and osimertinib sensitivity was entirely recovered. Phospho-EGFR (Y1068) and growth factor receptor-bound protein 2 (GRB2)/son of sevenless homolog 1 (SOS1) complex was found to mediate osimertinib resistance in OsiR1 cells with sustained KRAS activation. After 2 months of osimertinib withdrawal, this complex was dissociated, and the EGFR signal, but not the GRB2/SOS1 signal, was activated. Concomitant inhibition of MAPK kinase and EGFR could overcome osimertinib resistance. Thus, we identified a heterogeneous acquired resistance mechanism for third-generation EGFR TKIs, providing insights into the development of novel treatment strategies.

Filtering

  • Case insensitive filtering will display rows if any text in any cell matches the filter term
  • Use simple literal full or partial string matches
  • Separate multiple filter terms with a space. Any order may be used (i. e. a b c and c b a are equivalent )
  • Filtering will only apply to rows that are already loaded on the page. Filtering has no impact on query parameters.
  • Use quotes to match on a longer phrase with spaces (i.e. "mtor c1483f")

Sorting

  • Generally, the default sort order for tables is set to be first column ascending; however, specific tables may set a different default sort order.
  • Click on any column header arrows to sort by that column
  • Hold down the Shift key and click multiple columns to sort by more than one column. Be sure to set ascending or descending order for a given column before moving on to the next column.
