RET inhibition overcomes resistance to combined CDK4/6 inhibitor and endocrine therapy in ER+ breast cancer by Charlotte K. Kindt, Sidse Ehmsen, Sidse Ehmsen, Sidse Ehmsen, Sofie Traynor, Benedetta Policastro, Nikoline Nissen, Mie K. Jakobsen, Monique F. Hundebøl, Lene E. Johansen, Martin Bak, Elsa Arbajian, Johan Staaf, Henrik J. Ditzel, Henrik J. Ditzel, Henrik J. Ditzel, Carla L. Alves

“…RET silencing was evaluated mechanistically using global gene expression and pathway analysis. The clinical relevance of RET expression in ER+ breast cancer was investigated by gene array analysis of primary tumors treated with endocrine therapy and by immunohistochemical scoring of metastatic lesions from patients who received combined CDK4/6i and endocrine therapy.ResultsWe show that RET is upregulated in ER+ breast cancer cell lines resistant to combined CDK4/6i and fulvestrant compared to isogenic cells resistant to fulvestrant alone. siRNA-mediated silence of RET in high RET-expressing, combined CDK4/6i- and fulvestrant-resistant cells reduced their growth partially by affecting cell cycle regulators of the G2-M phase and E2F targets. …”
