The epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) is a cell surface receptor belonging to erythroblastic leukemia viral oncogene homologue (ErbB) family of tyrosine kinase. It plays critical role in the regulation of cell proliferation, survival and differentiation. The EGFR receptor is crucial in a variety of tumor development due to unlikely triggered by receptor overexpression, chromosomal mutation and or ligand-dependent receptor dimerization. The EGFR inhibition established a major therapeutic target in cancer therapy. The signal transduction pathway of EGFR is directly involved in tumor pathogenesis and progression. The combinatorial approach with EGFR inhibitors bring novel therapeutic regime with proved clinical efficacy. This critique briefly addressed EGFR receptor characteristics, worldwide report on various cancers and EGFR based potential targeting modalities in skin, breast, ovary, brain, lungs, pancreas, gastric and colorectal tumors and molecular pathways involved in EGFR targeting.
