Core Tip Integrated analysis of data from the SOLAD, CSSL, and SynLethDB databases was performed to identify HMGCR as a PIK3CD-interacting synthetic lethal partner. Atorvastatin in combination with gefitinib synergistically inhibited the proliferation and metastasis of colorectal cancer (CRC) cells through a synthetic lethal effect via the AMP-activated protein kinase–sterol regulatory element-binding protein 1 signaling pathway. This study provides new research ideas for CRC treatment.
