The EGFR-H773_V774insNPH gene mutation is a specific alteration that occurs in the Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) gene, which is responsible for coding the EGFR protein. This protein is a type of receptor tyrosine kinase that plays a critical role in cell growth, proliferation, and differentiation in response to the binding of epidermal growth factors. Mutations in the EGFR gene can lead to uncontrolled cell growth and are commonly found in various cancers, such as lung, colon, and breast cancers. The EGFR-H773_V774insNPH mutation is a unique insertion mutation that occurs between amino acids 773 and 774 in the EGFR protein sequence. This mutation results in the insertion of the sequence “NPH” (asparagine-proline-histidine) within the protein. This alteration disrupts the normal structure and function of the EGFR protein, leading to its constitutive activation. Constitutive activation of the EGFR protein stimulates continuous signaling pathways, promoting cell growth, survival, and migration. This specific mutation is often associated with acquired resistance to EGFR inhibitors, such as gefitinib and erlotinib, which are commonly used in the treatment of EGFR-mutant lung cancers. The EGFR-H773_V774insNPH mutation is particularly concerning as it confers a poor prognosis and limited treatment options for patients.

In non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC), uncommon epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations account for 10%–20% of all EGFR mutations. Mutations often impair the efficacy of traditional medicines like osimertinib and afatinib. Thus, novel EGFR-tyrosine kinase inhibitors are needed. Aumolertinib, a third-generation EGFR-TKI, may cure advanced NSCLC, however its effectiveness against uncommon mutations is uncertain. In this work, engineered Ba/F3 cells and patient-derived cells with diverse rare EGFR mutations were used to explore in vitro anticancer efficacy of aumolertinib. Results indicated that aumolertinib effectively inhibited the viability of cell lines harboring these mutations, outperforming its effects on wild-type EGFR cells. Additionally, aumolertinib demonstrated significant tumor growth inhibition in mouse models with specific uncommon mutations, suggesting its potential as a viable treatment option.

Figure 1 illustrates the antitumor effects of aumolertinib in a patient-derived xenograft (PDX) model with the EGFR H773-V774insNPH mutation, showcasing tumor volume, weight, body weights of mice, tumor photographs, and protein expression changes in response to treatment. (doi: 10.1016/j.apsb.2023.03.007)Figure 1. The researchers evaluated the antitumor activity of aumolertinib using a patient-derived xenograft (PDX) model featuring the EGFR H773-V774insNPH mutation.

Creative Biogene's Human EGFR-H773_V774insNPH Stable Cell Line - Ba/F3 provides a valuable tool for further exploring the therapeutic implications of aumolertinib and similar agents. Our cell line may facilitate rigorous testing of new compounds, ensuring that emerging therapies can be evaluated for effectiveness against hard-to-treat NSCLC variants.

Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR)-H773_V774 gene mutation is a specific alteration in the Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) gene, which is involved in cell growth, survival and fragmentation. This mutation involves the conversion of histidine to valine at positions 773 and 774 in the epidermal growth factor receptor protein, which can lead to constitutive activation of the receptor, promote uncontrolled cell growth and lead to the development of cancer. The epidermal growth factor receptor-H773_V774 mutation is particularly common in certain types of lung cancer (e.g., adenocarcinoma) and is often associated with a poor prognosis. Targeting this mutation has become an important strategy for the treatment of epidermal growth factor receptor-positive lung cancer. Targeted therapies such as tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) have been developed to block the activity of mutated epidermal growth factor receptor proteins. These inhibitors, such as ositinib, dacomitinib, and gefitinib, have shown efficacy in treating epidermal growth factor receptor-H773_V774 mutant lung cancers, improving patient prognosis and prolonging survival. In addition to its role in cancer treatment, the epidermal growth factor receptor-H773_V774 mutation can be used as a predictive biomarker to guide treatment choices for lung cancer patients. Detection of this mutation can help identify the most effective treatments for patients with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-positive lung cancer, ensuring that they receive personalised treatments that target their specific mutation. In conclusion, mutations in the epidermal growth factor receptor-H773_V774 gene are a major cause of certain types of lung cancer and an important therapeutic target for the treatment of EGFR-positive lung cancer. Targeting this mutation with tyrosine kinase inhibitors improves patient prognosis and personalised medical approaches, providing a valuable strategy in the fight against lung cancer.
Customer Q&As
What is the EGFR-H773_V774insNPH gene and its role in cancer?

A: The EGFR-H773_V774insNPH represents a novel insertion mutation identified in the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) gene. This mutation, located in exon 20, involves the insertion of the sequence "NPH" (asparagine-proline-histidine) between amino acids 773 and 774 of the EGFR protein. This insertion mutation can lead to aberrant EGFR signaling and may contribute to the development of resistance to EGFR-targeted therapies in certain cancers, particularly non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).

How does the EGFR-H773_V774insNPH mutation affect EGFR function?

A: The EGFR-H773_V774insNPH mutation affects EGFR function by altering the structure and activity of the kinase domain. This insertion can lead to the formation of a novel activation loop, which enhances the kinase activity of the EGFR protein. As a result, the mutated EGFR can drive uncontrolled cell growth and survival, contributing to the development of cancer.

Are there any therapeutic implications of targeting the EGFR-H773_V774insNPH mutation?

A: Targeting the EGFR-H773_V774insNPH mutation has therapeutic implications for the treatment of cancers that harbor this specific mutation. Inhibitors that can specifically target this mutation, such as osimertinib (Tagrisso), may be effective in treating patients with NSCLC and acquired resistance to first-line EGFR inhibitors. These drugs can lead to tumor regression and improve patient outcomes.

How is the EGFR-H773_V774insNPH mutation detected and diagnosed?

A: The EGFR-H773_V774insNPH mutation is detected through molecular diagnostic techniques such as next-generation sequencing (NGS), which can identify the specific insertion mutation in the EGFR gene. This allows for accurate diagnosis and prognosis of patients with NSCLC and acquired resistance to EGFR inhibitors. Reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and other molecular diagnostic methods can also be used to detect this mutation.
