Approximately half of all initial breast tumors have low-level HER2 expression (HER2-low), characterized as immunohistochemically 1+ or 2+ and no HER2 gene amplification as assessed by in situ hybridization. This low HER2 expression is a possible new target for antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs), which are currently being researched. Little is known regarding the prevalence and prognostic importance of low HER2-expression in metastatic breast cancer until now (MBC).
