Afatinib is an irreversible inhibitor of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and ErbB2 (IC50s = 0.5 and 14 nM, respectively).{33871} It increases the cytotoxicity of adriamycin in a concentration-dependent manner in multidrug-resistant A549T lung cancer cells overexpressing P-glycoprotein.{42401} Afatinib (20 mg/kg) reduces tumor growth in ErbB2-amplified NCI-N87 and NUGC4 gastric cancer mouse xenograft models.{42402} Formulations containing afatinib have been used in the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer.
