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

## Abstract Our purpose was to determine the clinical relevance of the detection of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) expressing urothelial and epithelial markers in bladder cancer patients. Sixty‐two patients who presented to Memorial Sloan‐Kettering Cancer Center between July 2000 and September 2001
## Abstract ## BACKGROUND. Cleavage of membrane‐anchored heparin‐binding epidermal growth factor‐like growth factor (proHB‐EGF) yields a soluble HB‐EGF isoform (sHB‐EGF), which is an activating epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) ligand and a C‐terminal fragment HB‐EGF‐C acting directly in the
