Scientific Background: EGFR is a receptor-tyrosine kinase for epidermal growth factor (EGF) and related growth factors including Transforming growth factor (TGF)-alpha, amphiregulin, betacellulin, heparin-binding EGF-like growth factor, GP30, and vaccinia virus growth factor. EGFR is involved in the control of cell growth and differentiation. Ligand binding to this receptor results in receptor dimerization, autophosphorylation (in trans), activation of various downstream signaling molecules and lysosomal degradation. It can be phosphorylated and activated by Src. Activated EGFR binds to the SH2 domain of phospholipase C-gamma (PLC-gamma) and activates downstream signaling from this phospholipase. Grb2 and SHC bind to phospho-EGFR and are involved in the activation of MAP kinase signaling pathways. Phosphorylation on Ser and Thr residues appears to attenuate of EGFR kinase activity. Phosphorylated EGFR binds Cbl, leading to its ubiquitination and degradation. Four alternatively spliced isoforms have been described with molecular masses of 134,277, 77,312, 69,288 and 44,664 Da. EGFR is unbiquitously expressed in normal tissues, and overexpressed in breast, head and neck cancers, which correlated with poor survival. Activating somatic mutations are seen in lung cancer, which in a minority of patients with strong responses to the EGFR inhibitor Iressa (Gefitinib, ZD1839). Other inhibitors include Erbitux, Tarceva, and Lapatinib.
