ABSTRACT
Drug-induced liver injury (DILI) is one of the most frequently adverse reactions in clinical drug use, usually caused by drugs or herbal compounds. Compared with other populations, cancer patients are more prone to abnormal liver function due to primary or secondary liver malignant tumor, radiation-induced liver injury and other reasons, making potential adverse reactions from liver damage caused by anticancer drugs of particular concernduring clinical treatment process. In recent years, the application of epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs) has changed the treatment status of a series of solid malignant tumors. Unfortunately, the increasing incidence of hepatotoxicitylimits the clinical application of EGFR-TKIs. The mechanisms of liver injury caused by EGFR-TKIs were complex. Despite more than a decade of research, other than direct damage to hepatocytes caused by inhibition of cellular DNA synthesis and resulting in hepatocyte necrosis, the rest of the specific mechanisms remain unclear, and few effective solutions are available. This review focuses on the clinical feature, incidence rates and the recent advances on the discovery of mechanism of hepatotoxicity in EGFR-TKIs, as well as rechallenge and therapeutic strategies underlying hepatotoxicity of EGFR-TKIs.
