    1. A deregulated HOX gene axis confers an epigenetic vulnerability in KRAS-mutant lung cancers

      [Paper-level Aggregated] PMCID: PMC10805385

      Evidence Type(s): Oncogenic, Predictive

      Justification: Oncogenic: The text indicates that HOXC10 is overexpressed in KRAS-mutant tumors, specifically mentioning the KRAS G12C variant, which is known to be associated with oncogenic activity in cancer. Predictive: The mention of robust HOXC10 expression in a patient-derived xenograft model with the KRAS G12C variant suggests that HOXC10 expression may predict response to treatment with MEK/BET inhibitors, indicating its potential as a predictive biomarker.

      Gene→Variant (gene-first): KRAS(3845):G12C TP53(7157):G245V

      Genes: KRAS(3845) TP53(7157)

      Variants: G12C G245V

    2. HOXC10 is overexpressed in 51% of primary KRAS-mutant tumors (Figure 3A; TCGA, >= 2SD over expression in normal lung), consistent with observations in cell lines (Figure 2B). By analyzing KRAS-mutant tumor/normal matched

      Evidence Type(s): Oncogenic, Predictive

      Justification: Oncogenic: The passage discusses the overexpression of HOXC10 in KRAS-mutant tumors, specifically mentioning the genotype KRAS G12C/TP53 G245V, indicating that these somatic variants contribute to tumor development or progression. Predictive: The passage mentions the efficacy of combined MEK/BET inhibitors causing tumor regression in KRAS-mutant patient-derived xenograft models, suggesting a correlation between the variants and response to therapy.
