What is HER2 in breast cancer? Another receptor protein that is present on the breast cell surface is called the human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) receptor. It is sometimes called the HER2/neu receptor and helps in the growth, division, and repair of breast cells. Some breast...
HER2 gene amplification/receptor overexpression is observed in a significant proportion of various tumour types, occurs relatively early during cancer progression and is associated with poor prognosis in women with breast cancer. Knowing the HER2 status of patients with breast cancer will become ...
What is breast cancer?Breast cancer develops when cells in the breast grow out of control. Several types of breast cancer can develop, depending on which cells turn into cancer. Most breast cancers start in the tissue or ducts of the breast.What increases my risk for breast cancer?

Like PIK3CA, HER2 is not an inherited gene mutation. Most breast cancer is HER2-negative. Research suggests about only 10% to 20% of cases are HER2-positive. This means there’s a change in the HER2 gene that makes breast cells grow and divide out of control. If you have invasive breas...

Now I’m going to talk to you about known, scientifically proven, cancer causing foods that actively increase the chance that you’ll be diagnosed with cancer in your lifetime. There are cases where it strikes quickly but it is more common when cancerous tumors manifest after years of ...
versus combination chemotherapy in metastatic breast cancer, with less toxicity and improved patient quality of life on single agents. HER2-positive breast cancer is often treated with initial combination of chemotherapy and HER2 targeted therapies such as pertuzumab (Perjeta) and trastuzumab (Herceptin)...
