Journal Article

Integration of signal transduction inhibitors with endocrine therapy: an approach to overcoming hormone resistance in breast cancer.

TL;DR: Clinical trials are in progress to determine the safety and optimal schedule for each of the various STIs, and studies of STIs in combination with aromatase inhibitors have commenced in breast cancer to see whether the therapeutic response to endocrine therapy can be enhanced further.
Journal ArticleDOI

Targeting the receptor tyrosine kinase RET sensitizes breast cancer cells to tamoxifen treatment and reveals a role for RET in endocrine resistance.

TL;DR: In ERα-positive breast cancer cells, activation of the receptor tyrosine kinase RET by its ligand GDNF results in increased ERα phosphorylation on Ser118 and Ser167 and estrogen-independent activation of ERα transcriptional activity.
Journal ArticleDOI

GDNF-RET signaling in ER-positive breast cancers is a key determinant of response and resistance to aromatase inhibitors

TL;DR: The results establish GDNF-RET signaling as a rational therapeutic target to combat or delay the onset of aromatase inhibitor resistance in breast cancer.
