Over the last two decades, traditional small molecules and antibody drugs have provided tremendous benefits to cancer patients. Due to the complexity of the disease, incomplete response and drug resistance ultimately emerge. New modalities beyond traditional small molecules and antibodies can provide unprecedented opportunities for drugs previously deemed “undruggable” targets. As an example, KRASG12C covalent inhibitors have shown promise for the treatment of Non-small cell lung cancer with KRASG12C mutations. Other KRAS mutants which cannot be inhibited by covalent inhibitors remain “undruggable”. In this webinar, we will discuss the opportunity of new modalities like oligonucleotides and TCR-engineered T cell therapy for treating KRAS mutant cancers, as well as various modality toolboxes to support drug discovery programs.
