We used two human bladder cancer cells with wild-type EGFR to study the synergism between irradiation and afatinib (an EGFR/HER2 dual kinase inhibitor) or erlotinib (an EGFR kinase inhibitor). Here, we showed that afatinib has better radiosensitizing effect than erlotinib in increasing cancer cell killing, the percentage of apoptotic cells, and DNA damage. Afatinib is also superior to erlotinib in combining radiation to decrease tumor size, inhibit glucose metabolism, and enhance apoptotic proteins in vivo. Finally, erlotinib suppressed cell growth and induced more DNA damage in bladder cancer cells transfected with HER2 shRNA, but not in control vector-treated cells. In conclusion, concomitant blockade of radiation-activated EGFR and HER2 signaling by a new-generation EGFR TKI better inhibits the growth of bladder cancer cells both in vitro and in vivo. The absence of radiosensitization by EGFR inhibition alone and the greater radiosensitizing effect of EGFR inhibitor in HER2 knocked down cells suggest the synergism between HER2 and EGFR in determining radiosensitivity. The regained radiosensitizing activity of erlotinib implies that with proper HER2 inhibition, EGFR tyrosine kinase is still a potential target to enhance radiotherapy effect in these seemingly unresponsive bladder cancer cells. ? 2015 American Association for Cancer Research. |
