Bemcentinib | BGB 324|BGB-324|BGB324|R428|R-428 | AXL Inhibitor 29 | Bemcentinib (BGB-324) is a small molecule inhibitor of Axl, which inhibits tumor growth and may overcome EMT-mediated acquired drug resistance (PMID: 20145120, PMID: 31134766). | |
Cetuximab | Erbitux | IMC-C225 | EGFR Antibody 51 | Erbitux (cetuximab) is a monoclonal antibody directed against EGFR, which inhibits signal transduction and cell proliferation (PMID: 28695301). Erbitux (cetuximab) is FDA approved for use in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma and KRAS wild-type, EGFR positive colorectal cancer (FDA.gov). |

---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
AXL over exp | head and neck squamous cell carcinoma | sensitive | Bemcentinib + Cetuximab | Preclinical - Cell culture | Actionable | In a preclinical study, Bemcentinib (BGB-324) treatment in combination with Erbitux (cetuximab) synergistically inhibited proliferation of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma cells overexpressing AXL in culture (PMID: 32439698). | 32439698 |
AXL Y821F | head and neck squamous cell carcinoma | no benefit | Bemcentinib + Cetuximab | Preclinical - Cell culture | Actionable | In a preclinical study, combining Bemcentinib (BGB-324) with Erbitux (cetuximab) treatment inhibited proliferation of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma cells expressing AXL Y821F, but did not enhance inhibition compared to cells treated with Erbitux (cetuximab) alone in culture (PMID: 32439698). | 32439698 |
AXL positive | head and neck squamous cell carcinoma | sensitive | Bemcentinib + Cetuximab | Preclinical | Actionable | In a preclinical study, BGB-324 and Erbitux (cetuximab) worked synergistically to inhibit proliferation of Axl-positive head and neck squamous cell carcinoma cell lines in culture (PMID: 25767293). | 25767293 |
