## Abstract The epidermal growth factor (EGF) plays a role in the development of prostate cancer, which becomes essential after androgen resistance has emerged. The EGF receptor (EGFR) is therefore a potential target for anticancer therapy. We evaluated the effects of ZD1839 (‘Iressa’), an orally a

Autocrine growth factors for the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) have been identified in prostate tumors, implicating a role for EGFR in the progression of prostate cancer. To investigate early signaling mechanisms used by the EGFR in prostate tumor cells, we have characterized the involveme
