Precision medicine: therapeutic targets in PC.

Target Treatment Estimated Prevalence
KRAS wild-type EGFR inhibitors (e.g., panitumumab, cetuximab, erlotinib) 10–20% [24,28,29,30]
DNA repair pathway defects (BRCA1, BRCA2, PALB2, ATM) DNA damaging agents (e.g., mitomycin C, platinums)
PARP inhibitors (e.g., olaparib)
4–20% [22,24,30,31]
HER2 amplification Anti-HER2 antibodies/tyrosine kinase inhibitors (e.g., trastuzumab/lapatinib) 10–30% [32,33]
MET activation (mutation, overexpression, amplification) MET inhibitors 20% [34,35,36]
Mismatch repair gene deficits (MLH1, MSH2, MSH6, PMS2) Immunotherapy 3–22% [37,38,39,40]
PIK3CA amplification/mutation +/− PTEN loss mTOR inhibitors (e.g., everolimus) 15–20% [24,41,42]
CDKN2A loss CDK4/6 inhibitors (e.g., palbociclib) 25% [22,43,44,45]
BRAF mutation BRAF inhibitors (e.g., dabrafinib), MEK inhibitors (e.g., trametinib) 2% [19,24,27,42]
FGFR1 amplification FGFR inhibitors 1% [27,30]
