Genomic Profiling of HER2-Positive Gastric Cancer: PI3K/Akt/mTOR Pathway as Predictor of Outcomes in HER2-Positive Advanced Gastric Cancer Treated with Trastuzumab
26 Apr 2018
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: HER2-positive gastric cancer (GC) affects 7%-34% of patients with GC. Trastuzumab-based first-line treatment has become the standard of care for HER2-positive advanced gastric cancer (AGC). However, there are no clinically validated biomarkers for resistance to HER2-targeted therapies. Upregulation of PI3K pathway and tyrosine kinase receptor (TKR) alterations have been noted as molecular mechanisms...
