Abstract:
How to select endocrine agents for patients with ER-positive/ Her-2 -positive breast cancer has been a difficult question. Increasing evidences shows a consistent results that an association between Her-2 overexpression and poor response of endocrine treatment, tamoxifen and the third generation aromatase inhibitors has the similar poor efficacy. The treatment strategy for such patients should prefer chemotherapy alone or in combination with trastuzumab, and endocrine therapy combining with trastuzumab may be the development strategy.
