Because of the Hippo pathway’s unique ability to restrict TAZ/YAP-TEAD in promoting regeneration, any abnormality of its core components, may promote the migration, invasion, and malignancy of cancer cells. Aberrant overexpression of YAP/TAZ-TEAD promotes tumorigenesis and is therefore considered oncogenes in many solid tumors. Drug resistance is a major factor undermining the efficacy of cancer drugs. As YAP/TAZ-TEAD complex plays a role in intrinsic and acquired resistance to various chemotherapeutic and targeted therapy drugs, there is increasing interest in combining a TEAD inhibitor with various cancer therapies. Since elevated YAP/TAZ-TEAD activity has been implicated in multiple cancer types at various stages of cancer progression and cancer types, Drugging the TEAD hydrophobic pocket, which was discovered in 2015, remains as an attractive and proven strategy to modulate the activity …
