Abstract
Cetuximab is an epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-targeting drug that has shown effects in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). The effects are, however, small and have mainly been proven in a subset of patients, and the cost-effectiveness has been questioned. For this reason, we need to know more about the basic mechanisms controlling the effect of EGFR signalling on tumour growth.
