The EGFR family consists of 4 receptor tyrosine kinases, EGFR (ERBB1), ERBB2 (HER2), ERBB3 (HER3) and ERBB4 (HER4). Recent reports revealed that the kinase domains of both EGFR (ERBB1) and ERBB2 gene were somatically mutated in human cancers, raising the possibility that the other ERBB members posse

## Abstract We analysed the dynamic change of imatinibβresistant mutations in BCRβABL kinase domain focusing on T315I mutation during dasatinib or nilotinib therapy. Fiftyβfive imatinibβresistant chronic myeloid leukaemia patients (32 patients with imatinibβresistant mutations and 23 patients witho
## Abstract Gene amplification is among the most common genetic abnormalities that cause cancer. One of the most clinically important gene amplifications in human cancer causes extensive reduplication of __ERBB2__. A variety of cancers also occasionally harbor somatic mutations in __ERBB2__. Gene a
## Abstract Activating mutations in the tyrosine kinase domain of the __HER2__ gene have recently been reported in lung adenocarcinomas, mainly in East Asian patients. Our study was devised to evaluate the prevalence and nature of __HER2__ mutations in lung adenocarcinomas from Caucasian patients.
