AKT1 and non-small cell lung carcinoma: Studies have shown that AKT inhibition, specifically, could moreuniformly enhance response and survival in patients with high pAKT levels who are at high risk for AKT-mediated resistance, as this distinct approach has the unique potential to combat the otherwise profound heterogeneity of molecular resistance events that are present in EGFR-mutant NSCLC patients with acquired EGFR-TKI resistance to improve their outcomes [139, 140].
