KRAS / RAS 靶向 — 从平台化到 Ph3 验证
第一代 G12C 药(sotorasib、adagrasib)结合关闭态 KRAS。治疗后受体酪氨酸激酶反馈把 KRAS 重新推到开启态,单药缓解大约 30–40%、无进展约半年,远低于 EGFR / ALK。AACR 2024 还在讨论「G12C 单药耐药」;2026 的讨论已经是「整个 RAS 家族怎么被一套平台打」。
KRAS是人类最早发现的癌基因之一,长期被视为“不可成药”,在非小细胞肺癌、结直肠癌和胰腺导管腺癌中高频突变;它不仅驱动致癌信号,还塑造免疫抑制性微环境——升高PD-L1与肿瘤突变负荷、阻碍效应T细胞浸润并招募MDSC、Treg等抑制性细胞[1]。临床疗效则存在亚型差异,一项74例患者的队列提示KRAS-G12D突变与PD-1/PD-L1抑制剂的原发耐药相关[2]。机制上,既往研究多聚焦趋化因子轴:胰腺癌中突变Kras经NF-κB上调CXCL5、借CXCR2募集肿瘤相关中性粒细胞并阻碍T细胞浸润[3];结直肠癌中KRAS经SLC25A22-天冬酰胺信号驱动CXCL1转录以招募MDSC,阻断后可与抗PD-1治疗协同[4];KRAS突变CRC还伴Treg增多、M1巨噬细胞与活化CD4记忆T细胞减少[5],RNF43缺失等共突变亦可重塑免疫微环境[6]。这些认识基本停留在“招募谁、排斥谁”的细胞构成与趋化因子层面,对免疫激活更上游的环节,上述文献着墨甚少。
正在AACR 2026年会late-breaking壁报环节以同步发表形式报告的这项研究来自Di Cao及同事:论文于2026年4月19日在线发表于Cancer Research[7](DOI: 10.1158/0008-5472.CAN-25-4447),题为“Mutant KRAS Suppresses DNA Sensing by Remodeling Membrane Tension to Clear Extracellular Tumor DNA”。按推文的概括,它回答的是KRAS如何调控肿瘤免疫微环境,而给出的解释落在胞外肿瘤DNA上——突变KRAS通过重塑膜张力将其清除,从而抑制DNA感知。
与以CXCL5/CXCL1-CXCR2轴募集中性粒细胞和MDSC为核心的既有机制[3][4]、以及以浸润细胞构成变化为落脚点的描述[1][5]相比,该工作把KRAS的免疫效应前移到肿瘤DNA能否被感知这一更上游的环节,并把膜张力这一生物物理性质引入机制链条。换言之,KRAS塑造免疫微环境的方式不止于改变浸润细胞的“名单”,还可能从源头减少可供感知的肿瘤DNA,这与既往趋化因子机制处在不同的解释层面。
当然,目前可及的信息仅到标题与发表层面,具体瘤种、样本量与体内验证方式均未见披露;该机制是否适用于KRAS的不同变异(如G12D[2])及不同共突变背景[1][6],能否转化为与免疫检查点抑制或CXCR2通路阻断联用的干预策略[3][4],都还是悬而未决的问题,有待完整论文数据给出答案。

answers a key question - "Does the world need another KRAS G12C OFF inhibitor?" #AACR26
Key benchmarks for any new G12Ci:
Primary resistance & ORR
Durability of response
Toxicity profile (autoimmune hepatotoxicity!)
Activity in hard-to-treat
