Abstract:
HER2 is a tyrosine kinase receptor. It is the main drug target and clinical biomarker for the treatment of breast cancer. About 2% of breast cancer cases has HER2 mutations. Regardless of the expression level or amplification status of HER2, breast cancer with HER2 mutations may respond to targeted HER2 therapy. This article reviews the research progress of HER2 gene mutation in the treatment of breast cancer.
