TL;DR

The rapid evolution of KRAS-targeted therapeutic agents represents a shift from allele-specific inhibition towards a strategy that is mutation/context-dependent, thereby creating further clinical translation opportunities and increased patient benefit.

Harnessing novel agents to target KRAS-driven pathways in pancreatic cancer.

INTRODUCTION Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is an aggressive malignancy in which activating KRAS mutations, present in more than 90% of tumors, constitute the principal oncogenic driver. Advances in structural biology have enabled the pharmacologic targeting of KRAS, a protein historically regarded as 'undrugg...

Emerging Therapeutic Strategies for Non-G12C KRAS Mutations in Colorectal Cancer: Focusing on G12D and G12V

The development of MRTX1133, zoldonrasib, zoldonrasib (RMC-9805), VS-7375, RMC-5127, and daraxonrasib (RMC-6236) demonstrates that direct targeting of previously undruggable KRAS alleles is becoming clinically feasible, and anti-EGFR combination strategies particularly important in CRC.

Current Landscape of RAS-Targeted Therapy for Pancreatic Cancer.

Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) continues to carry a poor prognosis, and only incremental gains in systemic therapy have been made over the past decade. Because activating KRAS mutations are present in more than 90% of PDAC and serve as the inciting oncogenic driver, RAS has long been a coveted but elusive ther...

Abstract B074: Comparative analysis of next-generation KRAS inhibitors in patient derived pancreatic cancer organoids

Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is one of the deadliest cancers with a five-year survival rate below 10%. Due to aggressiveness and lack of early detection methods, patients are often diagnosed at an advanced stage, leaving few therapeutic options. This emphasizes the need for a deeper understanding of the mo...
