Research progress in HER2-low breast cancer / 中国医师杂志

ABSTRACT

The latest statistics show that breast cancer (BC) has become the cancer with the highest incidence in the world, seriously affecting women′s physical and mental health, and has become a hot research topic in the medical field. Accordingly, its treatment has also entered the molecular era. According to its molecular classification, BC is mainly divided into Luminal A, Luminal B, simple human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive and triple negetive breast cancer (TNBC). Obviously, correct judgment of HER2 expression status is very important for cancer typing and treatment of breast cancer. With the further development of research, some scholars have recently put forward new viewpoints and views on the interpretation of HER2 expression and cancer typing in breast cancer. This review will introduce the HER2-low breast cancer combined with the current frontier viewpoint and research findings, hoping to provide a reference for the precision treatment of breast cancer in the later stage and related further research.
