ERBB2 mutation frequency in lobular breast cancer with pleomorphic histology or high‐risk characteristics by molecular expression profiling
6 Dec 2018
Abstract excerpt
HER2-positive breast cancer is defined by amplification or overexpression of the HER2/ERBB2 oncogene and accounts for about 15% of breast cancer cases. Somatic mutation of ERBB2 is an alternative mechanism, by which activation of HER2 signaling can occur. ERBB2 mutation has been associated with invasive lobular breast cancer (ILBC). This study investigates the frequency and phenotype of ILBC harboring mutated...
