Breast Cancer Subtypes Based on ER/PR and Her2 Expression: Comparison of Clinicopathologic Features and Survival

Abstract: Objective: To compare the clinicopathologic features and survival in the four breast cancer subtypes defined by immunohistochemistry (IHC) expression of estrogen receptor (ER) or progesterone receptor (PR) and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (Her2): ER/PR+,Her2+; ER/PR+, Her2-; ER/PR-,Her2+; and ER/PR-,Her2-. Methods:A 7-year retrospective study of 1134 invasive breast cancer subjects. Clinical and pathologic features and survival of the four subtypes were compared.Results: Using ER/PR+ and Her2-as a … Show more

“…Breast cancer is not a single disease [38]: breast cancer prognosis varies with expression of key hormone receptors: estrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptor (PR) and her2/neu/ ERbB2 (Her2) [56] histologic grade [57], and presence of metastasis. Recent evidence suggests that the microenvironment in these tumors is different [58,59].…”

“…The tumours were classified as ER/PR+,HER2+ (Luminal B); ER/PR+, HER2-(Luminal A); ER/PR-,HER2+; ER/PR-,HER2-(Triple negative) [17]. We found statistically significant correlation between IL 10 expression and ER/PR-, HER2+ subtype.…”

“…Triple negative tumours and ER-ve, PR-ve and HER2 + ve tumours are of worse prognosis among the different sub types [17,25,26]. A few studies even associated ER-ve, PR-ve and HER2 + ve sub types with worst prognosis among the different subtypes [27,28].…”
