Monoclonal antibody which binds EGFR1 tyrosine kinase, commonly mutated in a range of cancers. Background and Research Application The EGFR family of type I growth factor receptor tyrosine kinases includes EGFR (HER1), c-erbB2 (HER2; neu), c-erbB3 (HER3) and c-erbB4 (HER4). EGFR activation signals multiple downstream signalling cascade pathways such as the Ras - ERK, PI3-K - Akt, Jak - STAT and PKC pathways which help in growth and proliferation of cells. Dysregulation of EGFR signalling as a consequence of overexpression, amplification and mutation of the EGFR gene occurs frequently in several types of cancers, including head and neck, brain, bladder, stomach, breast, lung, endometrium, cervix, vulva, ovary, oesophagus, stomach and in squamous cell carcinoma. Tumours become dependent on EGFR signalling to maintain their malignant phenotypes. |
