Significance
Lack of faithful preclinical models limits the exploration of resistance mechanisms to KRAS G12C inhibitor in PDAC. We generated an autochthonous KRAS G12C -driven PDAC model, which revealed allele-specific biology of the KRAS G12C during PDAC development. We identified CD24 as an actionable adaptive mechanisms in cancer cells induced upon KRAS G12C inhibition and blocking CD24 sensitizes PDAC to KRAS inhibitors in preclinical models.
