Wungki Park, Assistant Attending at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, shared on X:
“The first map of acquired resistance to the tri-complex RAS(ON) inhibitor daraxonrasib in PDAC published today in Nature Medicine.
The biology converges on KRAS amplification, MAPK reactivation, PI3K signaling, MYC and cell-state plasticity (partial EMT), providing a strong rationale for mechanism-based combination strategies to achieve deeper and more durable responses.
Outstanding work by Ida Aronchik, Sumit Kar, Kevin Lin, Andy Aguirre, Mallika Singh and the entire multidisciplinary team. Excited to see where the field goes next.”
