Title:

Differential response of HER2-positive breast cancer to anti-HER2 therapy based on HER2 protein expression level

Excerpt:
Among HER2 3 + BC patients, administration of adjuvant anti-HER2 in addition to chemotherapy significantly increased 10-year survival (P < 0.001 and P = 0.006, for BCSS and DMFS, respectively)....In HER2 + BC, overexpression of HER2 protein is the driver of the oncogenic pathway, and it is the main predictor of response to anti-HER2 therapy.
