Bladder cancers frequently exhibit an increased number of epidermal growth factor receptors (EGFR) in comparison to normal urothelium. The EGFR could potentially be a target for toxic conjugates. The aim of our study was to compare the expression of EGFR in metastases with concurrent or primary tumo
Lung cancer tissues from 68 patients were examined for epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor levels and EGF receptor gene copy numbers. Histologic cell types of these lung cancer tissues included squamous-cell carcinoma (n = 30), adenocarcinoma (n = 28), large-cell carcinoma (n = 4), and small-cell
## Abstract ## BACKGROUND. Epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR‐TKIs) have demonstrated clinical benefit in patients with nonsmall cell lung cancer (NSCLC), particularly those with tumors that have EGFR‐TK domain mutations. Moreover, the EGFR and cyclooxygenase (COX)‐2
