Discordant STRAT4-ERRB2 vs IHC-HER2 Casesa
| Case No. | STRAT4-ERBB2 | IHC-HER2 | HER2 FISH (HER2/Cep17 = Ratio) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Negative | Positive (3+) | Negative (3.05/3.1 = 0.98) |
| 2 | Positive | Negative (1+) | Positive (9.15/1.65 = 5.55 |
| 3 | Positive | Negative (1+) | Negative (3.20/2.90 = 1.1) |
FISH, fluorescence in situ hybridization; HER2, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2; IHC, immunohistochemistry.
aTwo STRAT4 results were concordant with FISH, and one IHC result was concordant with FISH. The ratio reports the average HER2 copy number compared with centromere Cep17 copy number. A ratio of 2.0 or more is a positive FISH result.
