Erratum: Drug resistance mechanism of kinase inhibitors in the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma

  • Frontiers Media SA, Lausanne, Switzerland

Due to an error in the editorial process, an incorrect version of the article was published. Significant textual revisions to the published article are detailed below.

The previous version is available in the Supplementary Material of this Erratum. The article has now been updated with the correct version. The publisher apologizes for this error.

A correction has been made to the section “Primary Drug Resistance”, subsection “Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)”. This section has been removed and its contents merged with the section entitled “Tumor heterogeneity and EGFR”.

A correction has been made to the section “Acquired Drug Resistance”, subsection “PI3K/AKT and MAPK/ERK signaling pathways”. This section has been removed and replaced with the section entitled “EGFR and HGF/cMet mediated signaling pathway”.

A spelling mistake was corrected in the keywords section of this article. “Carcinom” was corrected to “carcinoma”.

Additional references have been added to the published article. Details of these references can be found in the "References" section of this article.

Tables 1, 2 have been added to the published article.
