EGFR—The Superstar Among Therapeutic Targets

EGFR, a receptor belonging to the ErbB family, is encoded by exons 18–24 of the EGFR gene. Mutations that activate the EGFR kinase domain primarily occur in exons 18–21, leading to the activation of downstream signaling pathways such as Ras/Raf/MEK/ERK, Janus kinase (JAK)/STAT, and PI3K/Akt/mTOR. These mutations are closely associated with human non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The EGFR pathway has been extensively studied as an oncogenic driver in NSCLC.

Introduction

EGFR, a receptor belonging to the ErbB family, is encoded by exons 18–24 of the EGFR gene. Mutations that activate the EGFR kinase domain primarily occur in exons 18–21, leading to the activation of downstream signaling pathways such as Ras/Raf/MEK/ERK, Janus kinase (JAK)/STAT, and PI3K/Akt/mTOR. These mutations are closely associated with human non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The EGFR pathway has been extensively studied as an oncogenic driver in NSCLC. Patients with EGFR-sensitive mutations in NSCLC can benefit from treatment with EGFR-tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs), including first-generation EGFR-TKIs (gefitinib and erlotinib), second-generation EGFR-TKIs (dacomitinib and afatinib), and third-generation EGFR-TKIs (osimertinib).

On May 20, 2024, the third-generation EGFR inhibitor "Rezivertinib" developed by Beta Pharma was approved for market release. It exhibits significant inhibitory activity against EGFR-sensitive single mutations and EGFR T790M-positive resistance mutations.

Currently, fourth-generation EGFR-TKIs are in the early stages of clinical development. For example, BBT-176, a novel oral fourth-generation EGFR TKI, selectively and non-covalently inhibits triple-mutant EGFR 19Del/T790M/C797S and L858R/T790M/C797S at nanomolar concentrations. It shows promising therapeutic potential for patients who develop EGFR C797S triple resistance mutations after osimertinib treatment.

 

EGFR (d746-750/T790M/C797S)

The activity of EGFR[d746-750/T790M/C797S] protein was detected using HTRF technology. After incubation with ATP and substrate at 25°C for 60 minutes, detection antibodies were added and incubated for another 60 minutes. The Ratio value (665/620) was calculated.
