Trastuzumab effects depend on HER2 phosphorylation in HER2-negative breast cancer cell lines
25 Jun 2020
Abstract excerpt
The breast cancer (BC) biomarker HER2 (Human Epidermal Receptor 2) is overexpressed in 25% of BC. Only patients with HER2-positive tumors receive HER2-targeting therapies, like trastuzumab (Herceptin). However, some women with a HER2-negative BC could benefit from trastuzumab. This could be explained by the activation/phosphorylation of HER2 that can be recognized by trastuzumab. The aim of this study is to...
