Despite frequent AKT/mTOR pathway activation in patient’s rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS), success of AKT inhibitors in the clinical has been limited. Here, using RMS patient-derived models, the authors demonstrate that the efficacy of the AKT inhibitor, ipatasertib, is in part due to its off-target effects on PRKG1, identifying PRKG1 as a potential biomarker for ipatasertib response.
