medication that inhibits cancer cell growth by targeting EGFR
Erlotinib is a medication used to treat certain types of cancer, such as non-small cell lung cancer and pancreatic cancer. It works by inhibiting the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), which is involved in the growth and spread of cancer cells. By blocking this receptor, erlotinib can help slow down or stop the progression of the disease.
