Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) driven by the mutation presents a formidable health challenge because of limited treatment options. MRTX1133 is a highly selective and first-in-class KRAS-G12D inhibitor under clinical development. Here, we report that the advanced glycosylation end product-specific receptor (AGER) plays a key role in mediating MRTX1133 resistance in PDAC cells.

The current review delves into the transformative role of precision medicine in addressing Colorectal Cancer [CRC], a pressing global health challenge. It examines closely signalling pathways, genetic and epigenetic modifications, and microsatellite in-stability. The primary focus is on elucidating biomarkers revolutionizing CRC diagnosis and treatment.

Colorectal cancer (CRC) patients with microsatellite-stable (MSS) tumors are mostly treated with chemotherapy. Clinical benefits of targeted therapies depend on mutational states and tumor location. Many tumors carry mutations in KRAS proto-oncogene, GTPase (KRAS) or B-Raf proto-oncogene, serine/threonine kinase (BRAF), rendering them more resistant to therapies.

KRAS is the most frequently mutated driver oncogene in human cancer, and KRAS mutation is commonly found in non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC), colorectal cancer (CRC), and pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). Inhibitors that covalently modify the mutated codon 12 cysteine have completed proof-of-concept studies in the clinic. Here, we describe structure-based design and cocrystal-aided drug optimization of a series of compounds with the 1,8-naphthyridine-3-carbonitrile scaffold.

Somatic activating mutations in KRAS can cause complex lymphatic anomalies (CLAs). However, the specific processes that drive KRAS-mediated CLAs have yet to be fully elucidated. Here, we used single-cell RNA sequencing to construct an atlas of normal and KrasG12D-malformed lymphatic vessels.
