RANK expression and Luminal BC response to CDK4/6 inhibitors
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: The combination of endocrine therapy (ET) with CDK4/6 inhibitors (CDK4/6i) was the most recent life-changing hallmark in metastatic Luminal breast cancer (BC). However, intrinsic and acquired resistance affect long-term efficacy. Here, we studied the role of receptor activator of nuclear factor-kB (RANK) pathway in CDK4/6i resistance. We found that RANK overexpression in Luminal BC associates with intrinsic resistance to CDK4/6i, both in vitro and in mouse xenografts. Transcriptomic analysis of mouse tumors highlighted decreased proliferation rate and chronic interferon (IFN)-response as resistance drivers.
