Abstract

AIMS: Resistance to targeted therapy is one of the critical obstacles in cancer management. Resistance to trastuzumab frequently develops in the treatment for HER2

METHODS: Four public datasets were used to screen PTP candidates in relation to trastuzumab responsiveness in HER2

RESULTS: PTPRO was identified as the key PTP which influences trastuzumab responsiveness and patient survival. PTPRO de-phosphorated several TKs, including the previously overlooked substrate ERBB3, thereby inhibiting multiple oncogenic pathways associated with drug resistance. Notably, PTPRO, previously deemed "undruggable," was effectively upregulated by saRNA-loaded nanoparticles. The upregulated PTPRO simultaneously inhibited ERBB3, ERBB2, and downstream SRC signaling pathways, thereby counteracting trastuzumab resistance.

CONCLUSIONS: Antibody-conjugated saRNA represents an innovative approach for targeting "undruggable" PTPs.
