It's a map for molecular pathway.
ERK / MEK inhibition leads to cell cycle progression end. (ie hyper multiplication of cancer cell) which if inhibited equates to SD (stable disease).
This poster clearly shows this

Now, 4601 also inhibits Pi3k and AKT, which stop cell survival and promote cell autodestuct mecanism (Apoptosis).

So, we should see tumor regression...
Combining 4601 with another apoptosis agent could generate significant tumor reduction and this cocktail could pretty much wipe out cancer cells...
Combining 4601 with chemo agent... or another EGFR...
Now, imagine 232 and 4601 combinaison...
