RAS-targeted therapies Amanda R. Moore, Scott C. Rosenberg, Frank McCormick & Shiva Malek The RAS (KRAS, NRAS and HRAS) family is the most are being investigated. Such strategies include inhibition frequently mutated gene family in cancers, and, of SOS1 and SHP2, which promote RAS activation, and consequently, investigators have sought an effective RAS inhibition of pathways downstream of RAS. Many of these inhibitor for more than three decades. Now, allele-specific potential therapies are being tried in combinations with covalent inhibitors against the most frequently mutated RAS inhibitors. Mutation-specific biochemical properties, version of RAS in NSCLC, KRAS-G12C, are in late-stage the spectrum of co-mutations, and the tissue of origin are clinical trials, and other strategies to inhibit this pathway likely to affect the effectiveness of such treatments.
