The identification of steroid receptors in human breast cancer tissues has provided biochemical markers to predict hormone responsiveness. Analysis of tumors from 328 patients for the estrogen receptor protein (ERP) revealed significant levels in 225 patients (68%). Fifty-five patients with advanced
Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFr) assays were performed by 3 different methods on 246 human primary breast carcinomas. Scatchard analyses of multipoint binding data on 19 of the first 209 tumours, performed by a displacement method, demonstrated that the majority of tumours exhibited 2 classes
