  • Clinical evidences have demonstrated limited efficacy of HER2-targeted therapies in patients with gastric cancer (GC). Here the authors show that survival benefit to anti-HER2 antibody Trastuzumab is reduced in GC patients with high levels of the caveolin-1 and that, in preclinical cancer models, antibody drug efficacy can be improved by modulating caveolin-1 levels with cholesterol-depleting drugs, statins.

  • Trastuzumab binding to tumor cells depends on the availability of HER2 at the cell membrane. Here the authors show that caveolin-1 (CAV1) regulates HER2 density at the cell membranes and that CAV1 gene knockdown or protein depletion via the cholesterol modulator lovastatin, increases trastuzumab binding and anti-tumor activity.
