Therapy Description

Filtering

  • Case insensitive filtering will display rows where any text in any cell matches the filter term
  • Simple literal full or partial string matches
  • Separate multiple filter terms with a spaces, order doesn't matter (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 a longer phrase which contains spaces "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.

Drug Name Trade Name Synonyms Drug Classes Drug Description
Cetuximab Erbitux EGFR Antibody 27 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).
Selumetinib AZD6244|ARRY-142886 MEK inhibitor (Pan) 20 MEK1 Inhibitor 20 MEK2 Inhibitor 18 Selumetinib (AZD6244) inhibits mitogen-activated protein kinase kinases (MEK or MAPK/ERK kinases) 1 and 2, which may prevent the activation of MEK1/2-dependent effector proteins and transcription factors, reducing cellular proliferation in various cancers (PMID: 27467210).
Molecular Profile Indication/Tumor Type Response Type Therapy Name Approval Status Evidence Type Efficacy Evidence References
BRAF V600E KRAS A146T KRAS A146V colorectal cancer resistant Cetuximab + Selumetinib Preclinical - Cell culture Actionable In a preclinical study, colorectal cancer cells harboring BRAF V600E that acquired KRAS A146V and A146T mutations and subsequent resistance to Erbitux (cetuximab), Encorafenib (LGX818), and Alpelisib (BYL719) combination treatment were resistant to combination therapy consisting of Erbitux (cetuximab) and Selumetinib (AZD6244) in culture (PMID: 27312529). 27312529
KRAS exon 2 colorectal cancer no benefit Cetuximab + Selumetinib Phase I Actionable In a Phase I trial, the combination of Erbitux (cetuximab) and Selumetinib (AZD6244) demonstrated safety, but minimal efficacy, in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer harboring KRAS exon 2 mutations, with no responses and 36% (5/14) of patients achieving stable disease (PMID: 26666244). 26666244
BRAF V600E colorectal cancer sensitive Cetuximab + Selumetinib Preclinical - Cell culture Actionable In a preclinical study, Selumetinib (AZD6244) and Erbitux (cetuximab) combination treatment inhibited survival of colorectal cancer cell lines harboring BRAF V600E in culture (PMID: 27312529). 27312529
BRAF amp BRAF V600E colorectal cancer resistant Cetuximab + Selumetinib Preclinical - Cell culture Actionable In a preclinical study, colorectal cancer cells harboring BRAF V600E developed sustained activation of Mapk signaling and resistance to Selumetinib (AZD6244) and Erbitux (cetuximab) combination treatment in culture, likely due to the acquired BRAF V600E amplification (PMID: 27312529). 27312529
BRAF V600E KRAS G13D colorectal cancer resistant Cetuximab + Selumetinib Preclinical - Cell culture Actionable In a preclinical study, colorectal cancer cells harboring BRAF V600E that acquired a KRAS G13D mutation and subsequent resistance to Erbitux (cetuximab) and Encorafenib (LGX818) combination treatment were resistant to combination therapy consisting of Erbitux (cetuximab) and Selumetinib (AZD6244) in culture (PMID: 27312529). 27312529
BRAF V600E MAP2K1 V211D colorectal cancer resistant Cetuximab + Selumetinib Preclinical - Cell culture Actionable In a preclinical study, colorectal cancer cells harboring BRAF V600E developed sustained activation of Mapk signaling and resistance to Selumetinib (AZD6244) and Erbitux (cetuximab) combination treatment in culture, likely due to the acquired secondary resistant mutation of MAP2K1 V211D (PMID: 27312529). 27312529
