Lung squamous cell carcinoma (LUSC) currently has limited therapeutic options because of the relatively few validated targets and the lack of clinical drugs for some of these targets. Although NRF2/NFE2L2 pathway activation commonly occurs in LUSC, NRF2 has predominantly been studied in other cancer models. Here, we investigated the function of NRF2 in LUSC, including in organoid models, and we explored the activity of a small molecule NRF2 inhibitor ML385, which has not previously been investigated in LUSC.
