KRAS and lung cancer: Here we identified KRA-533 as a novel KRAS agonist that binds to the GTP/GDP binding pocket in the KRAS protein to prevent GTP cleavage, resulting in the accumulation of constitutively active GTP-bound KRAS that triggers both apoptotic and autophagic cell death pathways in cancer cells, leading to potent suppression of mutant KRAS lung cancer in vitro and in animal models.
