Abstract

The aberrant expression of HER family members and cancer stem cells (CSCs) have been associated with tumour progression and resistance to therapy. At present, several HER inhibitors have been approved for the treatment of patients with a range of cancers but not for the treatment of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The present study investigated the co‑expression and prognostic significance of HER family members, type‑III deletion mutant EGFR (EGFRvIII), and the putative CSC biomarkers CD44 and epithelial cell adhesion molecule (EpCAM) in 43 patients with HCC. The relative expression of these biomarkers was determined using immunohistochemistry. At a cut off value of >5% of tumour cells stained for these biomarkers, 35% [wild‑type (wt)EGFR], 58% (HER‑2), 0% (HER‑3), 19% (HER‑4), 26% (EGFRvIII), 40% (CD44) and 33% (EpCAM) of patients were positive. In 23, 14 and 9% of the patients, wtEGFR expression was accompanied by co‑expression with HER‑2, EGFRvIII and HER‑2/EGFRvIII, respectively. EGFRvIII expression, membranous expression of CD44 and co‑expression of wtEGFR/EGFRvIII were associated with poor overall survival (OS). By contrast, cytoplasmic CD44 expression was associated with a longer OS time. The present study also investigated the effect of several agents targeting one or more members of the HER family, other growth factor receptors and cell signalling proteins on the proliferation of HCC cell lines. Among agents targeting one or more members of the HER family, the pan‑HER family blocker afatinib was the most effective, inhibiting the proliferation of three out of seven human liver cancer cell lines (LCCLs), while the CDK inhibitor dinacicilib was the most effective agent, inhibiting the proliferation of all human LCCLs tested. Taken together, the present results suggested that EGFRvIII expression and its co‑expression with wtEGFR or CD44 was of prognostic significance. These results also support further investigations of the therapeutic potential of drugs targeting EGFRvIII and other members of the HER family in patients with HCC.
