Real-Time Reverse Transcription-PCR Assay for Future Management of ERBB2-based Clinical Applications
1 Aug 1999
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Gene amplification/overexpression of ERBB2 (HER2, neu) is a major event in human breast tumorigenesis. ERBB2-based therapeutic agents and ERBB2-specific gene therapy are under development. These new perspectives call for a sensitive and accurate method to screen breast cancer patients for ERBB2 alterations. METHODS: We have developed and validated a real-time quantitative reverse transcription...
