Title:

Relevance of MET activation and genetic alterations of KRAS and E-cadherin for cetuximab sensitivity of gastric cancer cell lines

Excerpt:
We assessed the activity of cetuximab in five gastric cancer cell lines (AGS, KATOIII, MKN1, MKN28 and MKN45)….High EGFR expression and low levels of receptor activation were associated with cetuximab responsiveness….
