Gefitinib hydrochloride (ZD1839 hydrochloride) is a potent, selective and orally active EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor with an IC₅₀ of 33 nM. Gefitinib hydrochloride selectively inhibits EGF-stimulated tumor cell growth (IC₅₀ of 54 nM) and that blocks EGF-stimulated EGFR autophosphorylation in tumor cells. Gefitinib hydrochloride also induces autophagy. Gefitinib hydrochloride has antitumour activity^[1][2].

Gefitinib (0.01-0.1 mM) results in increased phosphotyrosine load of the receptor, increased signalling to ERK and stimulation of proliferation and anchorage-independent growth, presumably by inducing EGFRvIII dimerisation in long-term exposure of EGFRvIII-expressing cells. On the other hand, gefitinib (1-2 mM) significantly decreases EGFRvIII phosphotyrosine load, EGFRvIII-mediated proliferation and anchorage-independent growth^[1]. Gefitinib (ZD1839) inhibits the monolayer growth of these EGF-driven untransformed cells with IC₅₀ of 20 nM^[2]. Gefitinib leads to an inhibition of CALU-3 and GLC82 cell proliferation, with an IC₅₀ of 2 μM^[3].

Gefitinib (150 mg/kg, p.o.) in conbination with Metformin induces a significant reduction in tumor growth in nude mice bearing H1299 or CALU-3 GEF-R cells that are grown subcutaneously as tumor xenografts^[3]. In irradiated rats, Gefitinib treatment augmentes lung inflammation, including inflammatory cell infiltration and pro-inflammatory cytokine expression, while Gefitinib treatment attenuates fibrotic lung remodeling due to the inhibition of lung fibroblast proliferation^[4].

Cancer cells are seeded in 96-well plates and are treated with different doses of Gefitinib (0.01-20 μM), Metformin or both for 72 hours. Cell proliferation is measured with the MTT assay. The IC₅₀ values are determined by interpolation from the dose-response curves. Results represent the median of 3 separate experiments each conducted in quadruplicate. The results of the combined treatment are analyzed according to the method of Chou and Talalay by using the CalcuSyn software program^[3].

Mice^[3]
Four- to 6-week old female balb/c athymic (nu+/nu+) mice are acclimatized for 1 week before being injected with cancer cells and injected subcutaneously with 10⁷ H1299 and CALU-3 GEF-R cells that has been resuspended in 200 μL of Matrigel. When established tumors of approximately 75 mm³ in diameter are detected, mice are left untreated or treated with oral administrations of metformin (200 mg/mL metformin diluted in drinking water and present throughout the experiment), gefitinib (150 mg/kg daily orally by gavage), or both for the indicated time periods. Each treatment group consists of 10 mice. Tumor volume is measured using the formula π/6×larger diameter×(smaller diameter)².
Rats^[4]
The rats are randomly assigned to 1 of 4 experimental groups: 1) the unirradiated rats treated with oral administration of vehicle (0.1% Tween 80) once daily; 2) the unirradiated rats treated with oral administration of gefitinib (50 mg/kg/day) once daily; 3) the irradiated rats treated with oral administration of vehicle once daily; 4) the irradiated rats treated with oral administration of gefitinib once daily. Each experimental group comprised 5-6 rats and all treatments are delivered for 14 days.
