It is projected that colorectal cancer (CRC) and pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDA) will cause 52,580 and 49,830 deaths in the US in 2023, respectively (1). The 5-year survival rates for CRC and PDA are 65% and 12%, respectively (1). Over 50% of CRC and 90% of PDA patients harbor mutations in KRAS genes that are associated with poor prognosis, making the development of novel KRAS inhibitors an urgent unmet medical need (2).
