Xiuning Le: First Comprehensive Preclinical and Clinical Investigation of ADC Resistance Mechanisms in Lung Cancer

Xiuning Le, Associate Professor, Deputy Section Chief of Thoracic Medical Oncology at MD Anderson Cancer Center, shared a post on LinkedIn about a recent article by Monique B. Nilsson et al, published in Journal of Thoracic Oncology:

“New online from our group at mdanderson International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer Mechanisms of Resistance to Trastuzumab-DXd in Lung Cancer

Key findings:

  • Payload resistance driven by SLFN11 loss and copy-number gains in the efflux pump ABCC1/MRP1
  • Secondary HER2 extracellular domain mutations at the antibody binding site (e.g., D582, F595)
  • Tumors with acquired payload resistance or domain IV mutations retain HER2 signaling and remain sensitive to HER2 TKIs, including zongertinib and sevabertinib

This is the first comprehensive preclinical and clinical investigation of ADC mechanisms of resistance in lung cancer, with direct therapeutic implications.”
