by SP on October 16th, 2006

“HER2-positive breast cancer is one form of breast cancer. HER2-positive breast cancer is caused by the over-expression of a gene called HER2 (human epidermal growth factor receptor-2) in tumor cells. The HER2 gene helps control how cells grow, divide, and repair themselves. About one in four women with breast cancer has too many copies of the HER2 gene in her tumor cells, which causes cancer cells to grow and spread more quickly.”
