Oncogenic mutations in RAS genes result in the elevation of cellular active RAS protein levels and increased signal propagation through downstream pathways that drive tumor cell proliferation and survival. These gain-of-function mutations drive over 30% of all human cancers, presenting promising therapeutic potential for RAS inhibitors. However, many have deemed RAS "undruggable" after nearly 40 years of failed drug discovery campaigns aimed at identifying a RAS inhibitor with clinical activity. Here we review RAS nucleotide cycling and the opportunities that RAS biochemistry presents for developing novel RAS inhibitory compounds. Additionally, compounds that have been identified to inhibit RAS by exploiting various aspects of RAS biology and biochemistry will be covered. Our current understanding of the biochemical properties of RAS, along with reports of direct-binding inhibitors, both provide insight on viable strategies for the discovery of novel clinical candidates with RAS inhibitory activity.

Exploiting RAS Nucleotide Cycling as a Strategy for Drugging RAS-Driven Cancers
