No, it does not. I did some research a while back and found an article that went back and stained path reports for her2 in a 25 year study. 25 years later, the survival rate for her2 was 30%, vs. 41% (I believe those were the #s) for non her-2. And this was all in the days before they had chemo, so the odds are MUCH MUCH MUCH better now. So her2 is more aggressive, but even without chemo, many women lived long lives.
