PIK3CA Mutation is Associated with Poor Response to HER2-Targeted Therapy in Breast Cancer Patients

Abstract

Patients with HER2+ breast cancer with activating PIK3CA mutations had lower pCR rates and shorter PFS with palliative HER2-targeted therapy than those with wild-type PIK3CA. Precise targeted-therapy is needed to improve survival of patients with HER2+/PIK3CAm breast cancer.
