Journal ArticleDOI

EGFR protein overexpression and gene amplification in squamous cell carcinomas of the esophagus.

TL;DR: In conclusion, anti‐EGFR therapies may be appropriate for patients with ESCC and combined analyses by immunohistochemistry/FISH would clarify aberrations in protein and gene function, and could help to identify those patients who may benefit from anti-EGFR therapy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Amplification and overexpression of c-erbB-2, epidermal growth factor receptor, and c-met in biliary tract cancers.

TL;DR: It is proposed that the new adjuvant chemotherapies could be directed to carcinomas of the biliary tract in which ErbB‐2 and EGFR are overexpressed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Status of c-erbB-2 in gastric adenocarcinoma: a comparative study of immunohistochemistry, fluorescence in situ hybridization and enzyme-linked immuno-sorbent assay.

TL;DR: Patients having gastric adenocarcinoma with c‐erbB‐2 amplification are potential candidates for a new adjuvant therapy using humanized monoclonal antibody.
Journal ArticleDOI

Protein overexpression and gene amplification of HER-2 and EGFR in colorectal cancers: an immunohistochemical and fluorescent in situ hybridization study

TL;DR: Overexpression of HER-2 and EGFR were observed in only a small fraction of colorectal carcinomas, but were frequently accompanied by gene amplification.
