In addition to the inhibition of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) pathway, cetuximab-mediated EGFR blockade has been shown to modulate tumor microenvironment (TME) characteristics, such as antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC) activity, cytotoxic T-lymphocyte (CTL) infiltration into the tumor, anti-angiogenesis activity, and cytokine secretion via associated natural killer (NK) cells, etc.. Here, EGFR is linked to neoplasm.
