Abstract

ABSTRACT  Aim: To investigate the impact of KRAS mutation variants on the activity of regorafenib in SW48 colorectal cancer cells. Materials & methods: Activity of regorafenib was evaluated in isogenic SW48 KRAS wild-type (WT) and mutant cells. Subcutaneous xenografts (KRAS WT and G12C mutant variants) in NOD/SCID mice were analyzed to elucidate the effect of regorafenib treatment in vivo. Results: Compared with KRAS WT cells, all mutant variants seemed associated with some degree of resistance to regorafenib-treatment in vitro. In vivo, activation of apoptosis (TUNEL) and reduction of proliferation (Ki67) after treatment with regorafenib were more pronounced in KRAS WT tumors as compared with G12C variants. Conclusion: In SW48 cells, exon 2 mutations of the KRAS gene may influence antitumor effects of regorafenib.
