YAP1 mediates survival of ALK-rearranged lung cancer cells treated with alectinib via pro-apoptotic protein regulation

YAP1 mediates survival of ALK-rearranged lung cancer cells treated with alectinib via pro-apoptotic protein regulation

Relapse is a limitation for the efficacy of the anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK)-inhibitor alectinib in ALK-rearranged lung cancer. Here, the authors show that YAP1 activation upon alectinib treatment leads to therapy resistance and that inhibiting both YAP1 and ALK leads to longer tumor remission i...
