Bearing in mind the continuing controversy over the prognostic significance of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGF-r) expression, we investigated its clinical significance prospectively in 345 primary breast cancer patients. The prognostic significance of EGF-r expression, as measured by a radioli

The prognostic value of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) expression and its biological role in estrogen receptorpositive (ER+) and ER-negative (ER-) primary breast cancer is controversial. In this study, distributions of ER, progesterone receptor and EGFR have been established using immunohis
An association exists in primary human breast tumors between high epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) expression and a reduced number or even absence of estrogen receptors (ER). To determine whether an increase in EGFR expression might alter the estrogen responsiveness of an ERpositive human bre
## Abstract ## BACKGROUND Little is known about the expression of receptor tyrosine kinases in adult soft tissue sarcomas (STS). In the current study, the authors analyzed the expression of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), __ERBB2__, and __KIT__ in 281 patients with STS who were treated in
