## Abstract The receptor tyrosine kinase epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) is often expressed in solid malignant tumours, and the expression has been correlated to disease progression. Multiple new agents targeted against the EGFR have been developed during the last decade, but treatment sele
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
## Abstract The epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) has previously been detected in the nucleus of cancer cells and primary tumors. We have reported that EGFR translocates from the plasma membrane to the nucleus. Accumulation of nuclear EGFR is linked to increased DNA synthesis and proliferatio
