One thing we do know is that HER2 and ER status is variable and may change as the disease progresses. This has major implications for HER2 (-) BC as many may have HER2++ as the disease changes and do not know it and may have benefit grom herceptin. ER+ resistance can be reversed with administration of a HER1 inhibitor such as iressa, lapatinib or tarceva.
