Role of HER2 in breast cancer (I)

Role of HER2 in breast cancer (I). HER2 is an oncogene involved in abnormal cell growth HER2 gene amplification or protein overexpression produces activated HER2 receptors, which stimulates cell growth. Role of HER2 in breast cancer (II).

Presentation Transcript

  1. Role of HER2 in breast cancer (I) • HER2 is an oncogene involved in abnormal cell growth • HER2 gene amplification or protein overexpression produces activated HER2 receptors, which stimulates cell growth

  2. Role of HER2 in breast cancer (II) • HER2gene amplification or receptor overexpression occurs in approximately 30% of metastatic breast cancers • HER2-positive tumors are associated with poor prognosis and shortened disease-free/overall survival

  3. INCIDENCE OF RAS GENE MUTATIONS IN HUMAN CANCER TUMOR TYPE INCIDENCE (%) PANCREATIC CARCINOMA 90 COLON CARCINOMA 50 THYROID CARCINOMA 50 LUNG ADENOMA 30 MELANOMA 20 LYMPHOID 10 BLADDER 06
