Novel Preclinical Patient-Derived Lung Cancer Models Reveal Inhibition of HER3 and MTOR Signaling as Therapeutic Strategies for NRG1 Fusion-Positive Cancers
NRG1 rearrangements produce chimeric ligands that subvert the ERBB pathway to drive tumorigenesis. A better understanding of the signaling networks that mediate transformation by NRG1 fusions is needed to inform effective therapeutic strategies. Unfortunately, this has been hampered by a paucity of patient-derived disease models that faithfully recapitulate this molecularly defined cancer subset.
