HER2 Low Expression in Primary Male Breast Cancer.

Purpose: The introduction of HER2-targeting antibody drug conjugates (ADCs) offers new treatment options for female breast cancer patients (FBC) expressing low levels of HER2 (HER2 low). No evidence was found that HER2 low describes a new FBC subtype. There is a lack of studies determining the impact of HER2 low in male breast cancer (MBC).

Prognostic relevance of Ki67 expression in primary male breast cancer: determination of cut-off points by different evaluation methods and statistical examinations.

Purpose: 1% of all breast cancer cases occur in men. There are significant differences regarding clinical behaviour and genetic profiles between female (FBC) and male breast cancer (MBC). Parameters for decision-making on treatment and prognosis are derived from FBC.
