Clinical outcomes of early-stage triple-negative breast cancer after neoadjuvant chemotherapy

Elisabetta Bonzano, Radiation Oncologist at IRCCS San Matteo Polyclinic Foundation, shared a recent article by A.S. Raghavendra on X:

“Clinical outcomes of early-stage triple-negative breast cancer after neoadjuvant chemotherapy according to HER2-low status.

  • HER2-low eTNBC showed no pCR or survival benefit over HER2 IHC score 0.
  • RFS did not significantly differ between HER2 IHC categories after NAT.
  • HER2-low tumors had higher nodal positivity (55%) than HER2 IHC score 0 (46.6%); P = 0.011.
  • Post-treatment HER2 IHC status changed in 31.1% of HER2 IHC score 0 and 34.8% of HER2-low cases.
  • HER2 IHC status discordance underscores quantification and heterogeneity challenges.”
