1 BACKGROUND: HER2-positive breast cancer sensitivity to anthracyclines is enhanced when topoisomerase IIalpha (TOP2A) is co-amplified under both adjuvant and metastatic settings. Anthracyclines erb-b2 receptor tyrosine kinase 2 Homo sapiens
2 However, the relationship between anthracycline sensitivity and TOP2A amplification in HER2-positive breast cancers in neoadjuvant settings is not known. Anthracyclines erb-b2 receptor tyrosine kinase 2 Homo sapiens
3 Thus, the HER2/TOP2A co-amplified subtype may be effectively treated by anthracycline-containing regimens alone. Anthracyclines erb-b2 receptor tyrosine kinase 2 Homo sapiens
