KRAS as a druggable target in NSCLC: Rising like a phoenix after decades of development failures
Abstract
Cancers of nearly all lineages harbor alterations that deregulate mitogen-activated protein kinase signaling, a crucial signaling pathway for tumor formation and maintenance. Of these, KRAS mutations are the most frequent gain-of-function alterations found in patients with cancer. In particular they represents the most common molecular alteration detected in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) accounting for up to 25% of all oncogenic mutations. They were identified decades ago and prior efforts to target these proteins have been unsuccessful. KRAS mutation profiles (i.e. frequency of specific codon substitutions) in smokers and never-smokers are distinct and not all KRAS alterations are driver mutations. KRAS has evolved from a mutation with possible predictive value to a therapeutic target with great promise. Here, we will discuss the biology of KRAS in lung cancer and its clinical implications in oncology today and in the foreseeable future.

G12C and G12V mutations preferentially activate RAL signaling and G12D-mutant cell lines have high levels of phosphorylated AKT, suggesting preferential activation of PI3K-AKT-mTOR pathway.
“G12C and G12V mutations are shown to preferentially activate RAL signaling and G12D-mutant cell lines are shown to have high levels of phosphorylated AKT, suggesting preferential activation of PI3K-AKT-mTOR pathway [46, 47].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
