Abstract
Anti-HER2 resistance causes treatment failure in HER2-positive breast cancers. Here the authors identify FGFR4 as one of the vulnerabilities of anti-HER2 resistant breast cancer and show that FGRR4 inhibition enhances sensitivity to anti-HER2 treatment in these resistant cells by triggering ferroptosis.
