Anti-HDGF Antibody Targets EGFR Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitor-Tolerant Cells in NSCLC Patient-Derived Xenografts

These results suggest that HDGF could be critically involved in promoting tolerance to TKI in patient-derived xenografts of NSCLC tumors. Blocking HDGF signaling could be a potential means to enhance EGFR-targeted therapy of NSCLC that warrants further advanced preclinical and clinical studies.
