Synergistic disruption of KRAS and FAK pathways: A preclinical pipeline for PDAC therapy optimization (AACR 2026) - "Preliminary data from four KRAS-mutant PDOs (G12D, G12V, G12R) revealed robust synergy between RMC-6236 and either FAK inhibitor, with up to 10-fold and 100-fold increases in efficacy for defactinib or ifebemtinib and RMC-6236, respectively. Western blot analysis confirmed suppression of RAS-MAPK signaling, downregulation of c-MYC, and increased apoptotic markers including cleaved PARP and activated Caspase-3. These findings support the potential of KRAS-FAK co-targeting strategies in PDAC and lay the groundwork for future clinical development."

Focal adhesion kinase inhibition enhances response to checkpoint immunotherapy in hepatocellular carcinoma. (PubMed, J Transl Int Med) - "These models were treated with FAK inhibitor IN10018 as monotherapy or in combination with anti-PD-1 immunotherapy...FAK inhibitors can enhance the sensitivity of HCC to anti-PD-1 therapy by inhibiting angiogenesis and fibrosis and promoting CD8+ T cell infiltration. This effect exceeds the efficacy of the current first-line treatment, highlighting FAK inhibition as a novel and promising therapeutic strategy for HCC."

Sensitivity of Pancreatic Cancer Cell Lines to Clinically Approved FAK Inhibitors: Enhanced Cytotoxicity Through Combination with Oncolytic Coxsackievirus B3. (PubMed, Int J Mol Sci) - "In this study, we investigated the cytotoxicity of six FAKi (Defactinib, CEP-37440, VS-4718, VS-6062, Ifebemtinib and GSK2256098) used in clinical trials on five pancreatic tumor cell lines. Considering both oncolytic efficacy and the CI, the greatest enhancement in oncolytic activity was achieved when VS-4718 or CEP-37440 was combined with PD-H. These findings indicate that co-treatment with PD-H can potentiate the therapeutic activity of the selected FAKi and may represent a novel strategy to improve treatment outcomes in PDAC."
