| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In lung cancer, low frequency driver oncogenes such as ALK, ROS1, RET and NTRK fusion genes are targeted by the development of multiple tyrosine kinase inhibitors. These TKIs often shows marked tumor shrinkage for a couple years, however, the tumor inevitably relapses due to the emergence of acquired resistance. In the final year, we found and reported that 14 compound mutations in ALK kinase domain confers the resistance to most potent 3rd generation ALK inhibitor lorlatinib, but some of these resistance mutations became re-sensitive to 1st or 2nd generation ALK-TKIs. In addition, in ROS1 rearranged lung cancer, a couple of patient derived cell lines were newly established from the malignant pleural effusion, and evaluated a new inhibitor under collaboration. In addition, we clarified and published the relationship between the order of EGFR-TKIs use and the pattern of resistance mutation emergence.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
低頻度ながらDriver Oncogene陽性肺がんに対しては高い腫瘍縮小効果を示す治療薬が、複数開発され臨床応用されてきたが、獲得耐性が大きな問題として立ちはだかる。本研究において、複数の新規耐性機構と克服法を明らかにしてきたが、中でも重複耐性変異による第3世代阻害薬耐性が再び第１，２世代阻害薬への感受性を取り戻すという発見は、今後の治療順番を考えたり、耐性時にそのメカニズムに合わせた最適な治療法選択の重要性を提起するインパクトの大きな発見といえる。
