Unresponsiveness of colon cancer to BRAF(V600E) inhibition through feedback activation of EGFR
Inhibition of activated BRAF has been ineffective in colon cancers with the mutation; here, this is shown to be due to the feedback activation of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) in response to BRAF inhibition. Inhibition of the BRAF(V600E) oncoprotein by the small-molecule drug PLX4032 (...
