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 Marla 2008 Slamon 1989 Slamon 1987 Penault-Llorca 2005

Why do we give neoadjuvant therapy to patients with HER2-positive breast cancer? Decrease primary tumor size Surgical removal of previously inoperable tumor1 Increase chance of breast-conserving surgery2,3 Assess chemoresponsiveness of tumor4-6 Predict outcome by assessment of tumor response5,7 Decrease residual cancer burden8 Improve long-term outcome4,8 Reduce micrometastases4 1. van der Hage et al. 2007; 2.
