Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The HER2 655 A>G genetic variant has recently been associated with trastuzumab-induced cardiotoxicity in HER2 breast cancer patients. Considering previous results, the aim of our study was to validate the role of this polymorphism as a predictor of the cardiac toxicity of trastuzumab in breast cancer patients.
