Description

Byung-Ho Rhie and co-authors test a new drug against lung cancers that stop responding to a standard targeted pill, in a 2025 lab study. The pill, osimertinib, works at first on cancers with a changed growth gene, but tumors often find a way around it. Two side paths, run by proteins called AXL and FGFR1, help many tumors escape. The team grew resistant cancer cells in the lab and treated them with the new drug, AX-0085.

The drug blocked both side paths at once. Treated cells grew more slowly, formed fewer colonies, and moved less than untreated ones. Gene scans showed the escape paths quieted after dosing. The cells also grew sensitive to the old pill again. The authors back wider tests of the drug for patients whose tumors resist the standard pill.
