MEK1/2 inhibitor withdrawal reverses acquired resistance driven by BRAFV600E amplification whereas KRASG13D amplification promotes EMT-chemoresistance

Colorectal cancer cells can acquire resistance to MEK inhibition due to BRAF or KRAS amplification. Here, the authors show that while MEK inhibitor withdrawal in BRAF mutant cells restores sensitivity to the inhibitor through the loss of BRAF amplification mediated by a p57-dependent mechanism, drug...
