Table 2. Relationship between HER2 expressions in matched-pair samples.
Pre CRT [n] | Post CRT [n] |
|||
---|---|---|---|---|
POS [12] | IND [8] | NEG [10] | pCR or NET [19] | |
POS [6] | 2 | 0 | 0 | 4 |
IND [12] | 3 | 2 | 2 | 5 |
NEG [31] | 7 | 6 | 8 | 10 |
POS, positive, HER2 IHC 3+; IND, indeterminate, HER2 IHC 2+; NEG, negative, HER2 IHC 0, 1+ by IHC. HER2, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2; CRT, chemoradiotherapy; pCR, pathologic complete response; NET, not enough tumor to examine.
