Erlotinib is one of the peroral low molecular-weight tyroxine-kinase inhibitors used in the treatment of patiens with advanced nonsmall

cell lung cancer (NSCLC) in Czech Republic. In addition to theoretic data about its mechanism and characteristic we concern

with group of 170 patiens with advanced NSCLC treated with erlotinib from the year 2005 in our department. We compare our

knowledges and results of treatment with statistical data published from another oncological center from Czech Republic within the

framework of Tarceva Register.

Keywords: erlotinib, cell targeted therapy, advanced non-small cell lung cancer, Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor
