This federal Project Grant award from the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (CFDA 93.837 Cardiovascular Diseases Research) aims to investigate the molecular mechanisms underlying osimertinib-induced cardiac dysfunction and explore potential therapeutic targets. The $697,952 grant supports research conducted by the Beckman Research Institute of the City of Hope to establish a mouse model for this cardiotoxicity, identify key molecular pathways involved, and evaluate potential interventions to prevent or reverse the observed contractile dysfunction. The overarching goal is to improve the care of lung cancer patients experiencing cardiovascular complications from the tyrosine kinase inhibitor osimertinib. The 5-year project, awarded on May 15, 2025, leverages human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes and the newly developed mouse model to explore the role of the myosin light chain kinase 3 (MYLK3) pathway in osimertinib-induced cardiotoxicity.
