Epidermal growth factor receptor inhibitors, abbreviated EGFR inhibitors, is a class of drugs that blocks the EGF receptor.
Drugs
- Gefitinib (Iressa).[1]
- Erlotinib (Tarceva).[1]
- Afatinib (Gilotrif) - esp. effective when del19 is present.[2]
Note:
- Both gefitinib and erlotinib are also classified as tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs).
