1 Clinical trials enrolling ACC patients with high tissue vascular endothelial growth factor receptor (VEGFR) expression levels showed controversial results after treatment with Sunitinib, possibly due to variability in the expression of drug targets, which include epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR). Sunitinib epidermal growth factor receptor Homo sapiens
2 Clinical trials enrolling ACC patients with high tissue vascular endothelial growth factor receptor (VEGFR) expression levels showed controversial results after treatment with Sunitinib, possibly due to variability in the expression of drug targets, which include epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR). Sunitinib epidermal growth factor receptor Homo sapiens
3 In addition, by cell viability, proliferation and caspase activation assays we found that Sunitinib inhibits adrenocortical cell viability acting, at least in part, through EGFR, that, in turn, is crucial for EGF proliferative effect on adrenocortical cells. Sunitinib epidermal growth factor receptor Homo sapiens
