Core Tip |
Although intratumoral human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) heterogeneity was reported as important predictor to trastuzumab-based chemotherapy for HER2 positive breast cancer, the clinical significance of HER2 heterogeneity for gastric cancer had been unclear. We defined intratumoral HER2 heterogeneity as biopsy specimens which were taken from two or more different portion of the tumor showed different immunohistochemistry HER2 positivity, and HER2 heterogeneity based on this definition was pivotal poor predictor of tumor shrinkage and poor prognosticator. Thus, intratumoral HER2 heterogeneity should be included to assessment of HER2 positivity. |
