CIViC Evidence
Description
Preclinical study in thyroid cancer cell lines. 6 cell lines with alterations of the PI3K/Akt pathway were more sensitive to Akt inhibitor perifosine or MTOR inhibitor temsirolimus than 5 cell lines without genetic alterations in the PI3K/Akt pathway. Among the alterations, one cell line harbored a PTEN allele deletion and R130* mutation. This cell line harbored the lowest IC50 values to both perifosine and temsirolimus and also showed increased apoptosis with perifosine in a xenograft model.
