Non-small cell lung carcinomas (NSCLCs), especially lung adenocarcinomas (LUADs), harbor several driver mutations against which highly effective tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) are available. Although TKIs are generally effective against certain NSCLCs, primary or acquired resistance almost always develops. Driver mutations includeRETfusion (∼1–2% of NSCLC cases) andMETexon 14 skipping mutation (METΔex14; ∼3–4%). Surprisingly, the LUAD cell line LC-2/ad withCCDC6-RETfusion thrived independently of RET signaling, and Hs-746T cells harboringMETΔex14 plus amplification survived MET silencing. However, these two cell lines were highly sensitive to dual silencing of the representative anti-apoptotic BCL2 family members BCL2L1 and MCL1, undergoing extensive apoptosis in monolayer or 3D on-top culture systems. Moreover, we found that most LUAD cell lines and tissues expressed high levels ofBCL2L1andMCL1mRNA but extremely low levels ofBCL2. Together, these findings suggest that inhibiting BCL2L1 plus MCL1 may represent a new approach to treating LUAD cells irrespective of their driver mutations.
