- Description
- Afatinib was growth-inhibitory for three pancreatic cancer cell lines but cytotoxic only toward BxPC3 (KRAS wt) and Capan-2 (KRAS mut) cells, both of which express high levels of EGFR, ERBB2, and ERBB3 receptors. Afatinib increased the radiosensitivity of BxPC3 and Capan-2 cells. In comparison, Panc-1 cells (KRAS mut) expressing low levels of EGFR family receptors were resistant to afatinib-induced radiosensitization.
