Lani, this is a fascinating article, and thanks for posting it. I was a bit thrown by the fact that there were ER-'s with + percentages of ER; I didn't get the 2% cut-off point. What is disheartening is that they state the information on 16q has been around since 1990, and doesn't appear to have been further investigated.

One question I have on your last post is about the Luminal B group: Is this all Her2+/ER+ and some others, or some Her2+/ER+ and some others? If the latter, how is it determined? Does PR enter into it?

Thanks for all you do,

Hopeful
