Acquired drug resistance remains a major problem across oncogene-addicted cancers. Elucidation of mechanisms of resistance can inform rational treatment strategies for patients relapsing on targeted therapies while offering insights into tumor evolution. Here, we report acquired MET amplification as a resistance driver in a ROS1-rearranged lung adenocarcinoma after sequential treatment with ROS1 inhibitors. Subsequent combination therapy with lorlatinib plus capmatinib, a MET-selective inhibitor, induced intracranial and extracranial tumor response. At relapse, sequencing of the resistant tumor revealed a MET D1246N mutation and loss of MET amplification. We performed integrated molecular analyses of serial tumor and plasma samples, unveiling dynamic alterations in the ROS1 fusion driver and MET bypass axis at genomic and protein levels and the emergence of polyclonal resistance. This case illustrates the complexity of longitudinal tumor evolution with sequential targeted therapies, highlighting challenges embedded in the current precision oncology paradigm and the importance of developing approaches that prevent resistance.

Small molecule inhibitors (SMIs) are increasingly being used in the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer. To support pharmacokinetic research and clinical treatment monitoring, our aim was to develop and validate an ultra-performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS) assay for quantification of eight SMIs: adagrasib, alectinib, brigatinib, capmatinib, crizotinib, lorlatinib, selpercatinib, and sotorasib. Development of the UPLC-MS/MS assay was done by trying different columns and eluents to optimize peak shape.

New drugs being established in the market every year produce specified structures for selective biological targeting. With medicinal insights into molecular recognition, these begot molecules open new rooms for designing potential new drug molecules. In this review, we report the compilation and analysis of a total of 56 drugs including 33 organic small molecules (Mobocertinib, Infigratinib, Sotorasib, Trilaciclib, Umbralisib, Tepotinib, Relugolix, Pralsetinib, Decitabine, Ripretinib, Selpercatinib, Capmatinib, Pemigatinib, Tucatinib, Selumetinib, Tazemetostat, Avapritinib, Zanubrutinib, Entrectinib, Pexidartinib, Darolutamide, Selinexor, Alpelisib, Erdafitinib, Gilteritinib, Larotrectinib, Glasdegib, Lorlatinib, Talazoparib, Dacomitinib, Duvelisib, Ivosidenib, Apalutamide), 6 metal complexes (Edotreotide Gallium Ga-68, fluoroestradiol F-18, Cu 64 dotatate, Gallium 68 PSMA-11, Piflufolastat F-18, 177Lu (lutetium)), 16 macromolecules as monoclonal antibody conjugates (Brentuximabvedotin, Amivantamab-vmjw, Loncastuximabtesirine, Dostarlimab, Margetuximab, Naxitamab, Belantamabmafodotin, Tafasitamab, Inebilizumab, SacituzumabGovitecan, Isatuximab, Trastuzumab, Enfortumabvedotin, Polatuzumab, Cemiplimab, Mogamulizumab) and 1 peptide enzyme (-derived asparaginase) approved by the U.

Introduction: Select tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) used to treat oncogene-driven lung cancers also inhibit MATE-1. When MATE-1 is blocked, creatinine is retained in the serum. Elevated creatinine levels raise the specter of drug-induced intrarenal insufficiency despite the lack of true renal injury.
