Summary

We envisioned a scenario where the interaction between the ATM-Chk2/ATR-Chk1 pathways and Hippo enables GC cells to overcome chemotherapy-induced death stimuli. First, ATM-Chk2 and ATR-Chk1 were found to be activated across all the GC molecular subtypes. Moreover, a number of genes associated with their basal activation are recurrently mutated or amplified.

Thus, we retrospectively characterized a cohort of GC patients treated with first-line therapy for DDR- and Hippo-related markers, identifying a signature predicting inferior PFS and OS. This exploratory analysis provided the necessary information (frequency of candidate biomarkers and effect difference between groups) for a prospective study with validation purposes, which is the main goal of this trial.
