Abstract:
It has been shown that the PIK3CA mutation in HER2 positive breast cancer is up to 25%, and thus activates PI3K-Akt signaling pathway,promotes HER2 mediated tumor cell epithelial transformation, alters the intrinsic phenotype of HER2 overexpression breast cancer,and finally leads to resistance to anti HER2 targeted therapy.Some studies have shown that the PIK3CA gene mutation is associated with the efficacy of anti-HER2 targeted therapy.Therefore,real-time monitoring of PIK3CA gene mutation will promote indivi-dualized anti-HER2 targeted therapy.
