Abstract Text | The present study clarified the sensitivity of the BRAF tyrosine kinase inhibitor mechanism in patients with BRAF compound mutation and predicted the sensitivity using molecular dynamics simulation.We examined 16 BRAF tumors with p.V600E-positive non-small-cell lung cancer.One patient (6.2%) had a BRAF p.V600E and p.K601_W604 compound mutation with a good clinical response to dabrafenib and trametinib. Molecular dynamics simulation also complemented the effect.The combination of a genetic analysis and computational simulation model may help predict the sensitivity for dabrafenib in cases with a rare BRAF compound mutation. The construction of a genomic and simulation fused database is important for the development of personalized medicine in this field. |

BRAF | K601_W604del | deletion | unknown | BRAF K601_W604del results in the deletion of four amino acids in the protein kinase domain of the Braf protein from amino acids 601 to 604 (UniProt.org). K601_W604del has been identified in the scientific literature (PMID: 35598548), but has not been biochemically characterized and therefore, its effect on Braf protein function is unknown (PubMed, Aug 2024). |
