Dacomitinib in Combination with chemotherapy is effective in lung adenocarcinoma with rare EGFR L747P mutation and bone metastases: a case report

BackgroundRare epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations have a low incidence, and their response to EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) has not be Abstract Background: Rare epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations have a low incidence, and their response to...

Structure-guided identification and biological evaluation of reversible EGFR C797S inhibitors

Resistance to epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) remains a major therapeutic challenge in EGFR-mutant cancers. While third-generation covalent EGFR inhibitors successfully suppress the T790M-mediated resistance, acquisition of the C797S substitution abrogates irreversible drug binding and represents...

Aumolertinib in non-small cell lung cancer with uncommon EGFR exon 19 deletions: a real-world dual-center study

AbstractBackground Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)–tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) (EGFR-TKIs) show heterogeneous responses in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) harboring uncommon EGFR exon 19 deletion (E19del) mutations. This study evaluated the efficacy of second- and third-generation (2G/3G) EGFR-TKIs...

Prognostic significance of RICTOR mutations in EGFR-mutant metastatic lung adenocarcinoma: a retrospective cohort study

Abstract RICTOR, a scaffold protein of the mTORC2 complex, regulates AKT signaling and has been implicated in tumor progression and therapy resistance across multiple cancers. However, the prognostic impact of RICTOR mutations in epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-mutant lung adenocarcinoma...

Stimulation of EGFR signaling in fibro-adipogenic precursors decreases adipogenesis in Duchenne muscular dystrophy

AbstractBackground Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) is characterized by the formation of fibrosis and fat deposits that progressively replace muscle fibers, resulting in the loss of muscle function. Both fibrosis and adipogenesis are operated by fibroadipogenic precursors (FAPs), but the molecular...

Pharmacological inhibition of PGK1 suppresses EGFR-positive esophageal squamous cell carcinoma by dual targeting of glycolysis and autophagy-dependent EGFR degradation

AbstractIntroduction Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) is an aggressive malignancy with limited treatment options. Phosphoglycerate kinase 1 (PGK1), with both glycolytic and kinase activities, has been implicated in tumor progression, but its therapeutic potential in ESCC remains unclear. Methods We...
