Overview

Preclinical study reveals that PD-L1 promotes EGFR-TKI resistance through MAPK-induced autophagy in EGFR-mutant lung adenocarcinoma, highlighting combination therapy benefits.

Key Points

  • Upregulation of PD-L1 promotes primary resistance to EGFR-TKIs in lung adenocarcinoma cells, and it accelerates tumor proliferation while suppressing cellular apoptosis.
  • Approximately 30% of EGFR-mutant cases exhibit primary resistance, but combining gefitinib with pemetrexed synergistically restores therapeutic antitumor efficacy.
  • In vitro and in vivo experiments demonstrate that PD-L1 induces autophagy via MAPK signaling, highlighting a therapeutic target—preclinical model; clinical trials needed.
