Abstract:HER2 amplification/overexpression is the predictive biomarker for HER2-targeted therapy. However, there are technical limitations to HER2 detection by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) and immunohistochemistry (IHC). Recently, novel HER2-directed antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) have shown benefits in HER2-negative breast cancer (BC) with low HER2 expression (i.e., IHC1+ or IHC2+ with FISH-negative). We investigated whether droplet digital PCR (ddPCR) using the HER2/EIF2C1 ratio could be an alternative … Show more
