Combined blockade of GPX4 and activated EGFR/HER3 bypass pathways inhibits the development of ALK‐inhibitor‐induced tolerant persister cells in ALK‐fusion‐positive lung cancer... by Koh Furugaki, Takaaki Fujimura, Narumi Sakaguchi, Yasutaka Watanabe, Ken Uchibori, Eisaku Miyauchi, Hidetoshi Hayashi, Ryohei Katayama, Shigeki Yoshiura

“…GPX4 was found to be upregulated in DTP cells and to promote cell survival by suppressing reactive oxygen species (ROS) accumulation; GPX4 inhibitors blocked this upregulation and facilitated ROS‐mediated cell death. Activated bypass signals involving epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)/receptor tyrosine‐protein kinase erbB‐3 (HER3) were also identified in DTP cells, and co‐treatment with EGFR‐TKI plus ALK‐TKI enhanced ROS levels. …”
