Abstract

Background: The Hippo pathway (effected by the YAP/TAZ-TEAD transcriptional complex) is a major regulator of cell density and organ size, and is a major pro-growth, pro-survival pathway yet to be targeted in precision oncology. YAP/TAZ-TEAD transcription is hyperactivated by specific genetic events (e.g. YAP/TAZ oncofusions, NF2 mutations) and has been demonstrated as a key mechanism of resistance acquisition to MAPK pathway inhibition, as well as inhibition of its upstream inputs, such as EGFR and other receptor tyrosine kinases.
