TRI-611, a selective, brain-penetrant molecular glue degrader of ALK

Nature, Published online: 09 September 2026; doi:10.1038/s41586-026-10998-3

TRI-611 induces the degradation of ALK fusion proteins via a previously undescribed CRBN recruitment motif, and its preclinical anti-tumour activity highlights TRI-611 as a potential new way of treating ALK-positive non-small-cell lung cancer.

Fibroblast growth factor receptor inhibition for succinate dehydrogenase-deficient gastrointestinal stromal tumors: a phase 2 trial

Nature Medicine, Published online: 26 May 2026; doi:10.1038/s41591-026-04376-9

In a multicenter phase 2 trial, the fibroblast growth factor receptor inhibitor rogaratinib showed encouraging clinical efficacy in patients with succinate dehydrogenase-deficient gastrointestinal stromal tumors, suggesting a potential new treatment option for this patient population and demonstrating that an epigenetic mechanism of oncogene activation can be successfully targeted with a tyrosine kinase inhibitor.
