NRAS Mutations May Require Mutation-Guided Combination Therapies

For decades, RAS proteins have occupied a frustrating place in cancer biology: central to tumor growth, yet difficult to drug. Members of the RAS family—KRAS, NRAS, and HRAS—act as molecular switches that help relay growth signals inside cells. When mutated, they can become stuck in a growth-promoting state, driving cancers including melanoma, pancreatic cancers, colorectal cancers, and other malignancies. Although new drug-development efforts have begun to make inroads against KRAS and HRAS, mutant NRAS has remained a particularly challenging target. A new study suggests that one reason is that NRAS-driven cancers may not depend on mutant NRAS alone.
