Identification of HER2-Positive Metastases in Patients with HER2-Negative Primary Breast Cancer by Using HER2-targeted 89Zr-Pertuzumab PET/CT

TLDR
Human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-targeted imaging with zirconium 89-pertuzumab PET/CT was successful in detecting HER2-positive metastases in women with Her2-negative primary breast cancer, demonstrating the ability of targeted imaging to identify patients for targeted therapies that might not otherwise be considered.
Abstract
Human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-targeted zirconium 89–pertuzumab PET/CT successfully helped to identify HER2-positive metastases in women with HER2-negative primary breast cancer.

Human breast cancer: correlation of relapse and survival with amplification of the HER-2/neu oncogene

TL;DR: Amplification of the HER-2/neu gene was a significant predictor of both overall survival and time to relapse in patients with breast cancer, and had greater prognostic value than most currently used prognostic factors in lymph node-positive disease.
