A Novel Molecular Target in Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor-Mutant Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer treated with a Combination of Osimertinib and Pemetrexed
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: In this study, we evaluate the therapeutic potential of combining osimertinib with pemetrexed and clarify the underlying molecular mechanisms in order to establish novel therapeutic strategies for EGFR-mutant NSCLC. We found that the combination of osimertinib and pemetrexed could induce strong apoptotic activity and enhance anti-tumor effects compared to monotherapy in two NSCLC cell lines harboring an EGFR mutation. In addition, we have identified PLK1 as a therapeutic target for combination therapy and as a promising treatment target for overcoming resistance to osimertinib in EGFR-mutated NSCLC patients.
