L755S, a HER2 kinase domain mutation, is the most common HER2 mutation in breast cancer associated with resistance to anti-HER2 trastuzumab treatment. Here, we showed that HER2-L755S confers hyperactivation of MAPK and PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathways and resistance to both reversible and irreversible HER2 tyrosine kinase inhibitors. We further demonstrated that the HER2 TKIs in combination with MEK inhibitor, AZD6244, or PI3K inhibitor, GDC0941, yield robust killing in HER2-L755S cancer cells, indicating ...[more]
