TL;DR

KRAS-mutant NSCLC is transitioning from historically untargetable disease to a therapeutically actionable subset, and future progress hinges on resistance-directed combinations, biomarker-guided personalization, expansion to non-G12C mutants, and evaluation in earlier disease settings.

Emerging Therapeutic Strategies for Non-G12C KRAS Mutations in Colorectal Cancer: Focusing on G12D and G12V

The development of MRTX1133, zoldonrasib, zoldonrasib (RMC-9805), VS-7375, RMC-5127, and daraxonrasib (RMC-6236) demonstrates that direct targeting of previously undruggable KRAS alleles is becoming clinically feasible, and anti-EGFR combination strategies particularly important in CRC.

Targeting KRAS in Cancer: Advances in Precision Oncology and Drug Development

These breakthroughs have validated direct KRAS inhibition as an effective therapeutic strategy, however, durable clinical responses remain limited by intrinsic and acquired resistance, pathway reactivation, tumour heterogeneity, and the lack of effective therapies for non-G12C KRAS mutations.
