Description
The G1202R ALK mutation was found in a crizotinib-resistant ALK-rearranged NSCLC, and the mutant ALK fusion was further characterized in Ba/F3 cells. EML4-ALK variant 1 with G1202R mutation was expressed in Ba/F3 and subject to 17-AAG. IC50 for cell number in response to 17-AAG was 33.4 nM, in contrast to IC50 for EML4-ALK wild-type, which was 98.9 nM, suggesting sensitization of this variant to HSP90 inhibition.
