Multi-payload antibody-drug conjugates for photothermal dynamic and chemotherapy of HER2-positive breast cancer. (PubMed, Mater Today Bio)
Combined with trastuzumab's targeting, this leads to marked suppression of HER2-positive BT474 xenograft tumors in mice. Our design may offer a powerful and universal modality for precise diagnosis and treatment of HER2-positive malignant tumors.

Treatment of HER2-Positive Brain Metastasis from Cervical Cancer Using Multimodal Therapy Including Pyrotinib: A Case Report. (PubMed, Int J Womens Health)
This case illustrates successful management of HER2-positive brain metastases from cervical cancer using a multimodal approach combining surgery, radiotherapy, and systemic therapy with pyrotinib and capecitabine. The durable complete response with manageable toxicity underscores the therapeutic potential of HER2-targeted therapy as part of a multimodal regimen; however, further studies are required to validate these findings and optimize personalized treatment strategies.

HER2-low status in breast cancer: clinicopathological factors and prognostic value. (PubMed, Arch Med Sci)
HER2-low status was associated with worse OS in breast cancer patients with certain negative prognostic factors compared with HER2-zero status. Additionally, HER2-low1+ and HER2-low2+/ISH(-) subgroups predominantly exhibited HR+ status.

A Case Report: A Rare Casr Mutation Associated with HER2-Positive Breast Cancer. (PubMed, Exp Oncol)
The patient underwent neoadjuvant chemothera- py, right-sided mastectomy, and trastuzumab therapy, achieving complete pathological regression (pCR) with no recur- rence after ten months of follow-up. Although the CASR p.Glu755Asp variant's pathogenic role is unproven, emerging evidence links CASR overexpression with hER2-positive breast cancers, promoting tumor progression via calcium- dependent signaling pathways (PI3K/AKt, MAPK). This case highlights the potential role of CASR as a low-penetrance susceptibility gene in breast cancer and supports further functional and genomic studies to clarify its clinical impact.

HER2-Low Gastric and Gastroesophageal Junction Adenocarcinoma: From Assessment to Treatment Strategies. (PubMed, Int J Mol Sci)
A cross-tumor perspective contrasts GC/GEJ testing and biology with the breast cancer paradigm and summarizes the importance of HER2-low expression in non-gastric malignancies. Finally, we discuss the therapeutic strategies in HER2-low GC/GEJ and highlight key safety and monitoring considerations for HER2-directed ADCs.

Effectiveness of pegylated liposomal doxorubicin (Caelyx®) monotherapy in patients with metastatic HER2-low breast cancer: a monocentric retrospective study. (PubMed, Cancer Treat Res Commun)
PLD demonstrated modest efficacy in metastatic BC lacking HER2 overexpression, with comparable outcomes in HER2-low and HER2-negative subgroups. These findings suggest that HER2-low status does not predict anthracycline benefit and support the view that HER2-low is unlikely to represent a distinct therapeutic subtype. Further research is needed to refine treatment selection in this heterogeneous population.

The impact of the PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway on trastuzumab resistance in HER2-positive gastric cancer. (PubMed, Clin Transl Oncol)
This study examines the biological and clinical significance of HER2 in gastric cancer and explores the molecular mechanisms underlying PI3K/Akt/mTOR-mediated resistance to trastuzumab. Furthermore, emerging therapeutic strategies targeting these mechanisms may facilitate the development of effective, personalized treatment approaches for patients with HER2-positive gastric cancer.

Therapeutic response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy in HER2-positive pure mucinous breast cancer: a case report. (PubMed, Int J Surg Case Rep)
She received six cycles of neoadjuvant docetaxel, carboplatin, trastuzumab, and pertuzumab. Persistent radiologic abnormalities may represent residual mucin rather than viable tumor cells, underscoring a potential limitation of imaging-based response evaluation. This report provides insight into response interpretation in this rare entity and supports the need for cautious clinical decision-making.

Establishment and Validation of Cancer Cell Lines with HER2 Receptor Gene Deletion (PubMed, Mol Biol (Mosk))
Assessment of the binding efficiency of a fluorescently labeled HER2-specific antibody to the generated cell clones revealed a decrease in fluorescence intensity by 80.6-fold, 33.7-fold, and 2-fold in the SK-BR-3, SK-OV-3, and A549 cell lines, respectively. The generated cell lines with ERBB2 deletion represent a key tool for testing targeted therapeutics and can be utilized in the development of treatment modalities aimed at HER2-overexpressing malignant neoplasms.
