Abstract Text Targeting RAF for antitumor therapy in RAS-mutant tumors holds promise. Herein, we describe in detail novel properties of the type II RAF inhibitor, LXH254.LXH254 was profiled in biochemical, in vitro, and in vivo assays, including examining the activities of the drug in a large panel of cancer-derived cell lines and a comprehensive set of in vivo models. In addition, activity of LXH254 was assessed in cells where different sets of RAF paralogs were ablated, or that expressed kinase-impaired and dimer-deficient variants of ARAF.We describe an unexpected paralog selectivity of LXH254, which is able to potently inhibit BRAF and CRAF, but has less activity against ARAF. LXH254 was active in models harboring BRAF alterations, including atypical BRAF alterations coexpressed with mutant K/NRAS, and NRAS mutants, but had only modest activity in KRAS mutants. In RAS-mutant lines, loss of ARAF, but not BRAF or CRAF, sensitized cells to LXH254. ARAF-mediated resistance to LXH254 required both kinase function and dimerization. Higher concentrations of LXH254 were required to inhibit signaling in RAS-mutant cells expressing only ARAF relative to BRAF or CRAF. Moreover, specifically in cells expressing only ARAF, LXH254 caused paradoxical activation of MAPK signaling in a manner similar to dabrafenib. Finally, in vivo, LXH254 drove complete regressions of isogenic variants of RAS-mutant cells lacking ARAF expression, while parental lines were only modestly sensitive.LXH254 is a novel RAF inhibitor, which is able to inhibit dimerized BRAF and CRAF, as well as monomeric BRAF, while largely sparing ARAF.

Filtering

  • Case insensitive filtering will display rows if any text in any cell matches the filter term
  • Use simple literal full or partial string matches
  • Separate multiple filter terms with a space. Any order may be used (i. e. a b c and c b a are equivalent )
  • Filtering will only apply to rows that are already loaded on the page. Filtering has no impact on query parameters.
  • Use quotes to match on a longer phrase with spaces (i.e. "mtor c1483f")

Sorting

  • Generally, the default sort order for tables is set to be first column ascending; however, specific tables may set a different default sort order.
  • Click on any column header arrows to sort by that column
  • Hold down the Shift key and click multiple columns to sort by more than one column. Be sure to set ascending or descending order for a given column before moving on to the next column.
