Journal ArticleDOI

HER2 kinase domain mutation results in constitutive phosphorylation and activation of HER2 and EGFR and resistance to EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors.

TL;DR: It is suggested that Her2(YVMA) activates cellular substrates more potently than HER2(WT); and cancer cells expressing this mutation remain sensitive to HER2-targeted therapies but insensitive to EGFR TKIs.
Journal ArticleDOI

Loss of Phosphatase and Tensin Homologue Deleted on Chromosome 10 Engages ErbB3 and Insulin-Like Growth Factor-I Receptor Signaling to Promote Antiestrogen Resistance in Breast Cancer

TL;DR: PTEN levels inversely correlated with levels of tyrosine-phosphorylated IGF-IR in tissue lysate arrays of primary breast cancers, suggesting that cotargeting both ER and receptor tyrosinesine kinase pathways holds promise for the treatment of patients with ER+, PTEN-deficient breast cancers.
Journal ArticleDOI

Inhibition of Mammalian Target of Rapamycin Is Required for Optimal Antitumor Effect of HER2 Inhibitors against HER2-Overexpressing Cancer Cells

TL;DR: The combined use of trastuzumab and mTOR inhibitors for the treatment of HER2+ breast cancer and the signaling and growth effects of the mTOR inhibitor RAD001 on HER2-overexpressing breast cancers were evaluated.
