People that are her2 positive and hormonal positive have a lower rate of relapse in the first few years after diagnosis than her2+ that are hormonal negative. Therefore, the benefit for the hormonal positives may be less as their risk of relapse is less, perhaps somewhere around 15%, if the article quote is correct.
