The clinical effectiveness of KRASG12C inhibitors (G12Ci) is limited both by intrinsic and acquired resistance, necessitating the development of combination approaches. Here, we identified targeting proximal receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) signaling using the SOS1 inhibitor (SOS1i) BI-3406 as a strategy to improve responses to G12Ci treatment. SOS1i enhanced the efficacy of G12Ci and limited rebound RTK/ERK signaling to overcome intrinsic/adaptive resistance, but this effect was modulated by SOS2 protein levels. G12Ci drug tolerant persister (DTP) cells showed up to a 3-fold enrichment of tumor initiating cells (TIC), suggestive of a sanctuary population of G12Ci resistant cells. SOS1i re-sensitized DTPs to G12Ci and inhibited G12C-induced TIC enrichment. Co-mutation of the tumor suppressor KEAP1 limited the clinical effectiveness of G12Ci, and KEAP1 and STK11 deletion increased TIC frequency and accelerated the development of acquired resistance to G12Ci, consistent with clinical G12Ci resistance seen with these co-mutations. Treatment with SOS1i both delayed acquired G12Ci resistance and limited the total number of resistant colonies regardless of KEAP1 and STK11 mutational status. Together, these data suggest that targeting SOS1 could be an effective strategy to both enhance G12Ci efficacy and prevent G12Ci resistance regardless of co-mutations.
