Erlotinib Hydrochloride also known as Tarceva, CP-358774, OSI-774 and NSC-718781, is an inhibitor of human EGFR tyrosine kinase (IC50 = 2 nM) and decreases EGFR autophosphorylation in tumor cells (IC50 = 20 nM). Erlotinib specifically targets the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase, which is highly expressed and occasionally mutated in various forms of cancer. It binds in a reversible fashion to the adenosine triphosphate (ATP) binding site of the receptor.

| Incubation Time | 24 h | |
| Results | Erlotinib exerts its anti-tumor effect by inhibiting the intracellular phosphorylation of tyrosine kinase which is related to EGFR. We investigated whether the administration time can affect the ability of erlotinib to inhibit the phosphorylation of EGFR. Under non-drugged state, the phosphorylation of EGFR showed obvious oscillation (p < 0.05, Fig. 3A). |

| Cell lines | BxPC-3 and MIAPaCa cells |
| Preparation method | Cell Viability Assay To test the viability of cells treated with B-DIM, erlotinib, or the combination, BxPC-3 and MIAPaCa cells were plated (3,000-5,000 per well) in a 96-well plate and incubated overnight at 37jC. We initially tested a range of concentrations for both B-DIM (10-50 µmol/L) and erlotinib (1-5 µmol/L). Based on the initial results, the concentration of B-DIM (20 Amol/L) and erlotinib (2 Amol/L) were chosen for all assays. The effects of B-DIM (20 µmol/L), erlotinib (2 µmol/L), and the combination on BxPC-3 and MIAPaCa cells were determined by the standard 3-(4,5- dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay after 72 h and was repeated three times. The color intensity was measured by a Tecan microplate fluorometer at 595 nm. DMSO-treated cells were considered to be the untreated control and assigned a value of 100%. |
