3 HER2: role in breast cancer
Human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) is a transmembrane protein and part of the HER family of 4 growth factor receptors (HER1/EGFR to HER4) Overexpression of HER2 and / or amplification of the HER2 gene occurs in up to 15% of breast cancers HER2 positivity is associated with aggressive disease a high risk of relapse poor survival Ref: Marla SABCS 2008; poster 3159 Slamon DJ et Science 1989;244: Slamon DJ Science 1987;235: Penault-Llorca F et al.
