Figure Lengend Snippet: (a) Schematic representation of the MaMTH-DS platform workflow. (b) Dose response curves for the top three candidate EGFR L858R/T790M/C797S inhibitors (midostaurin, AZD7762 and Chembridge 5213777) showing robust, dose-responsive and mutant specific inhibition. Results are shown as the average ± SD for three independent experiments.

Figure Lengend Snippet: Validation of midostaurin and gilteritinib as EGFR ex19del/T790M/C797S and EGFR L858R/T790M/C797S activating mutant inhibitors. (a) in vitro kinase assay of recombinant kinase domain (residues 696–1022) of indicated mutant or WT EGFR in the presence of midostaurin (left panel) or gilteritinib (right panel). Results are shown as the average ± SD for two independent experiments. (b) Effect of midostaurin and gilteritinib on caspase 3/7 activity in PC9 EGFR ex19del/T790M/C797S and A549 EGFR WT cells. Results are shown as single 36-point dose response experiments. (c) Effects of midostaurin (left panels) and gilteritinib (right panels) on EGFR activation and downstream signalling in PC9 EGFR ex19del and EGFR ex19del/T790M/C797S cells after 2 hours treatment (see Supplementary Figs 21–24 for source blot images). Results are representative of at least two independent experiments. (d) Midostaurin and gilteritinib mediated reduction of PC9 EGFR ex19del/T790M/C797S organoid viability. Osimertinib control, which does not target triple mutant EGFR activity, has no effect. Results are shown as single 36-point dose response experiments.

The contrast is inverted. Graph shows quantification of microtubule plus end velocity in HEK293 reporter cells for EMI1. n = 51, 41, 36 for HEK293 EGFR WT, control, 50 and 100 nM. n = 49, 47, 41 for HEK293 EGFR C797S control, 50 and 100 nM. Significant p-values are displayed and were calculated using the Mann-Whitney test.
