Abstract 2093: Co-treatment with KRAS G12D inhibitor MRTX1133 plus TTFields against human pancreatic and Colorectal cancer cell lines results in synergistic up-regulation of cleaved PARP in KRAS G12D & unexpectedly in KRAS G12V as well

Abstract Background: Both colorectal and pancreatic cancers are major global health issues and among deadliest cancers with great disease burden. The most commonly mutated oncogenic alteration in human cancers is KRAS, which is prevalent in pancreatic malignancies. The KRAS G12D mutation subtype is present in more than 40% of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). To this date there is no available targeted therapy options for patients with KRAS subtype mutations. MRTX1133 has been identified as a non-covalent, potent, and selective inhibitor of KRASG12D. This small molecule inhibitor has been shown to suppress KRASG12D signaling in cells and in vivo. Tumor Treating Fields (TTFields) therapy is a novel approach to treating cancer, the electric fields alter the behavior of cancer cells and prevent them from growing and dividing. We hypothesize that the co-application of MRTX1133 with TTFields will enhance the effects of MRTX1133 in PDAC and colorectal cancer (CRC). Martials and Methods: PDAC cell line CFPAC1 with KRAS G12 V mutation and LS513 CRC cell line with KRAS G12D Mutation were treated with same dose of MRTX1133 (500 nM) and were co-treated with 150kHz TTFields. After 48 hours western blot was used to probe for cleaved PARP, cleaved C3, phosphor-ERK and DUSP6. Results: In both KRAS G12D Part 1 (Regular Abstracts) ; 2024 Apr 5-10; San Diego, CA.
