## Abstract ## BACKGROUND: Only a portion of breast cancer patients currently selected for trastuzumab therapy respond. ## METHODS: Using a novel assay (HERmark) to quantify total human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) expression, the authors examined outcomes in 102 trastuzumabβtreated
Expression of c-erbB-2 protein has been associated with poor prognosis and poor response to chemotherapy in breast cancer patients. In the present prospective study, we have analyzed whether c-erbB-2, p53 and P170 proteins may be determinants of tumor resistance in locally advanced breast cancer pat
