Combining RAS(ON) G12C-selective and RAS(ON) multi-selective inhibitors overcomes sotorasib resistance driven byKRASG12C amplification or NRASG13R mutation (AACR 2025) - "Amplification of the KRASG12C mutant allele and acquisition of NRAS mutations have been reported as resistance mechanisms in tumors progressing on sotorasib and adagrasib...We generated five sotorasib-resistant cell lines from relapsed tumors of sotorasib-treated H358 xenografts (MR1-MR5) and two vehicle-treated tumors (MV1 and MV2). We created an additional isogenic cell line model, H358-MX1, by treating H358 cells with sotorasib and a SHP2 inhibitor, RMC-4550...In H358-MX1 mouse xenografts, RMC-7977 + RMC-4998 significantly inhibited tumor growth compared to single-agent treatments or other combination regimens. These preclinical data suggest that combination of RAS(ON) mutant-selective and RAS(ON) multi-selective inhibitors overcome resistance to KRASG12C (OFF) inhibitors driven by KRASG12C amplification and secondary NRASG13R mutation in KRASG12C mutated lung cancer models."

The efficacy of NST-628, a non-degrading pan-RAF/MEK molecular glue, and MEK inhibitors for overcoming acquired osimertinib resistance mediated by TRIM24-BRAF fusions in EGFR mutant NSCLC (AACR 2025) - "Next, we utilized a panel of compounds targeting the RAS/RAF/MAPK pathway including agents targeting pan-RAS (RMC-6236 and RMC-7977), SHP2 (RMC-4550), BRAF (dabrafenib, encorafenib, tovorafenib and vemurafenib), pan-RAF (TAK-632), MEK (binimetinib, cobimetinib, selumetinib and trametinib), pan-RAF/MEK (NST-628) and assessed whether targeting signal transduction molecule downstream of EGFR could overcome this adaptative resistance mechanism. TRIM24-BRAF expressing cells showed minimal sensitivity to BRAF, SHP2 or RAS targeting single agents. Taken together, our findings indicate that expression of TRIM24-BRAF fusion induce osimertinib resistance in EGFR mutant NSCLC and targeting the MEK pathway using trametinib or NST-628 can overcome osimertinib resistance in this setting."

Targeting RAS in angiosarcoma (AACR 2025) - "Our results show that RMC-7977 and MEK1/2 inhibitor mirdametinib exhibit strong potency against angiosarcoma cell lines harboring mutations in RAS and VEGFR/TIE2 pathways. We will also investigate the molecular mechanisms underlying oncogenic signaling to elucidate RAS dependency and strengthen the rationale for using RAS inhibitors to treat angiosarcoma. This approach aims to demonstrate that targeting RAS through RAS(ON) multi-selective inhibitors is effective, highlighting the urgent need for clinical trials to advance treatment options for angiosarcoma patients."

Mechanisms of resistance to RAS-GTP inhibition in pancreatic cancer (AACR 2025) - "A related compound, RMC-6236, is under clinical investigation for both RAS-mutant solid tumors and metastatic PDAC. Targeting these kinases in combination with RMC-7977 reverted resistance in models of innate and acquired resistance, suggesting a potential approach to investigate preventing or overcoming resistance in patients. Collectively, our pre-clinical data suggest that resistance to RAS inhibition with RMC-7977 may arise via multiple mechanisms, among them secondary RAS mutations, PI3K pathway-activating mutations, or cell-state changes that drive adaptive signaling through ECM-signaling pathways."

Direct inhibition of RAS reveals the features of oncogenic signaling in RAS-mutant cancers (AACR 2025) - "Here, we use RMC-7977, a first-in-class RAS·GTP inhibitor (RASMULTI(ON)), to characterize the features and therapeutic vulnerabilities of mutant RAS signaling in various human cancers...These findings provide mechanistic insights into how mutant RAS interacts with upstream and downstream partners to maximize oncogenic signaling. Furthermore, our results shed light on the selective pressure driving the emergence of RASQ61X mutations as a mechanism of resistance against RTK inhibition in colorectal cancer: we show that colorectal cancer cells that acquire RASQ61X mutations to overcome EGFR inhibition become more independent of upstream signaling than those that acquire RASG12X and this may explain the predominance of this mutation in colorectal cancer patients who acquire resistance to EGFR inhibitors."

Distinct regulation of Cyclin D mediates heterogenous response to RAS inhibition in colorectal cancer models (AACR 2025) - "In these cells, either RMC-7977 or the MEK inhibitor trametinib are sufficient to fully inhibit Cyclin D1 and cause G1 cell cycle arrest. Thus, we find a potential mechanism of resistance to RAS inhibition in CRC is persistent Cyclin D1 expression, mediated either through ERK-pathway re-activation or a shift in CCND1 mRNA regulation away from the ERK pathway. Depending on the tumor's distinct regulation of Cyclin D1, its full suppression can be achieved through increased inhibition of RAS-MAPK pathway signaling or a parallel inhibition strategy with RAS + PI3K combination inhibition."

Determination of the MYC- and TEAD-dependent transcriptome in pancreatic cancer (AACR 2025) - "We recently reported MYC amplification and TEAD-dependent transcriptional activation by YAP as drivers of resistance to the multi-RAS inhibitor RMC-7977 (RASmulti), the preclinical analog of RMC-6236...To determine the TEAD-dependent transcriptome, we treated a panel of three sets of paired naïve and RASmulti-resistant KPC cell lines, derived from an autochthonous mouse model of PDAC, and of six human KRAS-mutant PDAC cell lines with the TEAD inhibitor IAG933, with RMC-7977, or with the combination...Proteomic profiling of PDAC cell lines with acquired resistance to RMC-7977 showed upregulation of TEAD-dependent gene products, supporting TEAD activation as a non-genetic mechanism of acquired resistance. Together, our findings expand the role of MYC and TEAD in supporting PDAC cell growth and resistance to RAS inhibition and provide rationale for further evaluation of combination therapeutic strategies to limit resistance."

T-cell dependency of tumor regressions and complete responses with RAS(ON) multi-selective inhibition in preclinical models of PDAC (AACR 2025) - "Activating mutations in KRAS drive tumorigenesis in more than 90% of cases of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), promoting tumor cell proliferation and survival and contributing to an immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment (TME).RAS(ON) multi-selective inhibitors, such as RMC-6236 and RMC-7977, potently block the active state of mutant and wild-type RAS isoforms and show profound anti-tumor activity in PDAC murine models1. Although the RAS-MAPK signaling is essential to T cell function, incubation of pre-activated murine or human CD8+ T cells with RMC-7977 did not impede viability, activation, or proliferation in vitro. In addition, treatment of mice with RMC-7977 did not affect T cell responses to vaccination challenge in vivo.Overall, our preclinical data suggest that an adaptive immune response contributes to the anti-tumor effects of RAS(ON) multi-selective inhibitors in PDAC models, supporting clinical evaluation of the combination of RAS(ON) multi-selective..."

T-cell dependency of tumor regressions and complete responses with RAS(ON) multi-selective inhibition in preclinical models of PDAC. (PubMed, Cancer Discov) - "RAS(ON) multi-selective inhibitors, such as daraxonrasib (RMC-6236) and RMC-7977, target the active state of RAS, with potent anti-tumor activity in PDAC murine models. Moreover, the combination of RAS(ON) multi-selective inhibitors with immunotherapy conferred deeper and more durable tumor regressions, including complete responses not seen with either treatment alone. In summary, concurrent inhibition of mutant and wild-type RAS is active in concert with T cell immunotherapy, revealing RAS(ON) multi-selective inhibitors as a potential therapeutic immuno-sensitizing strategy in PDAC."

Preclinical Activity of RAS(ON) Multi-Selective Inhibitor RMC-7977 and Therapeutic Combinations in AML with Signaling Mutations (ASH 2024) - "RMC-7977 is a potent, oral small molecule inhibitor of both wild-type and mutant GTP-bound RAS (RAS(ON) multi-selective) and is a preclinical tool compound representative of the investigational drug RMC-6236...Mice receiving vehicle, venetoclax or gilteritinib had an average residual leukemic burden of 88.9% (SD=±23.3), 98.9% (SD=±0.4), and 79.7% (SD=±5.3) respectively, while those receiving RMC-7977 or RMC-7977 + venetoclax exhibited 46.12% (SD=±23.9) and 44.27% (SD=±15.8), respectively...Our data suggest that RAS(ON) multi-selective inhibition is an effective therapeutic approach to overcome RAS/MAPK-mediated resistance to FLT3i and is active in AML driven by oncogenic RAS mutations, addressing limitations of current standard of care treatments for AML with signaling mutations. These results provide a strong preclinical rationale for the clinical investigation of RAS(ON) multi-selective inhibition in FLT3- and RAS- mutant AML."

Selective Inhibition of Active KRASG13C with RMC-8839 Reveals an Increased Dependence of Codon-13 KRAS-Mutant Cancers on Wild-Type RAS Isoforms (EORTC-NCI-AACR 2024) - "To pharmacologically inhibit wild-type RAS, RMC-8839 was combined with the RAS(ON) multi-selective inhibitor RMC-7977, resulting in deeper pathway suppression and inhibition of cell proliferation as compared with either single agent.With an anticipated increase in the number of therapeutic options for treatment of RAS-addicted cancers, an enhanced understanding of the underlying biology of different RAS mutations may help inform optimal therapeutic strategies. Our preclinical data highlight that codon-13 mutations make tumors more reliant on wild-type RAS signaling and demonstrate that this can be addressed through the combination of a mutant-selective and multi-selective RAS(ON) inhibitor."

Evaluating direct KRASQ61H inhibition in pancreatic cancer models (AACRPanCa 2024) - "The related investigational agent RMC-6236 is currently undergoing clinical trials. Therefore, we combined erlotinib, an FDA-approved EGFR inhibitor, with either RM-047 or RMC-7977, and found that the addition of erlotinib prevented ERK rebound activity and synergized with RM-047 or RMC-7977 to reduce growth in KRASQ61H-mutant PDAC cell lines. These data provide insights into mechanisms by which KRASQ61H-mutant PDAC may be less dependent on KRAS for survival and further support the clinical evaluation of combined EGFR and RAS(ON) inhibition as a potential therapeutic strategy in the treatment of PDAC patients harboring KRASQ61H mutations."
