The epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and angiogenesis are well established targets in anti-cancer therapy. Several targeted anti-cancer therapies are in clinical trials in pancreatic and gastroesophageal (GEJ) cancer. However, many patients do not respond to these targeted therapies and there is therefore an increasing need for biomarkers for selection of patients to these therapies. We investigated the expression of EGFR, vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGF-A), and VEGF receptor 2 (VEGFR-2) in tumour tissue by immunohistochemistry, and soluble EGFR (sEGFR), soluble VEGFR-2 (sVEGFR-2), basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF), placental growth factor (PlGF), plasminogen activator inhibitor 1 (PAI-1), and different forms of the urokinase plasminogen activator receptor (uPAR): uPAR (I), uPAR (I-III), and uPAR (I-III)+(II-III) in plasma by quantitative immunoassays in 14 patients with pancreatic and GEJ cancer. We found expression in tumour tissue and the plasma levels to be similar to those found in patients with other tumour types. No correlation was found between the blood levels of soluble receptors and the corresponding tumour tissue levels. We conclude that these markers are present in pancreatic and GEJ cancer patients, and could be investigated further as predictive biomarkers in such patients treated with EGFR or angiogenesis targeted therapies.
