KRAS mutations are currently the most frequently mutated oncogenes in non-small cell lung cancers (NSCLC). A growing body of evidence suggests that targeting RAS could be an efficient strategy in NSCLC. Several approaches have been developed to target either RAS protein or downstream effectors such as RAF or MEK. First clinical trials evaluating farnesyltransferases inhibitors have led to unsuccessful results. However, targeting RAF and MEK could be a more efficient approach in NSCLC.
KRAS突变目前是非小细胞肺癌(NSCLC)中最常见的致癌基因突变。越来越多的证据表明,靶向RAS可能是治疗NSCLC的一种有效策略。已经开发了几种方法来靶向RAS蛋白或其下游效应物,如RAF或MEK。评估法尼基转移酶抑制剂的首批临床试验结果并不成功。然而,靶向RAF和MEK可能是治疗NSCLC更有效的方法。
