BACKGROUND/AIM: Human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) P95-isoform could be involved in trastuzumab resistance in HER2 metastatic breast cancer. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A total of 114 metastatic breast cancer patients treated with trastuzumab were evaluated retrospectively. HER2 was centrally reviewed. P95 was evaluated along with other markers possibly affecting trastuzumab efficacy in regards to progression-free survival and overall survival. RESULTS: HER2 was centrally negative in 54 cases. P95 expression was significantly higher in HER2-positive tumors. High p95 was associated with gain of HER2 copy number variations (CNVs), high pHER2Tyr877, Ki67 and HER2 mRNA. P95 as a continuous variable was positively correlated with mRNA expression of HER2 and negatively correlated with HER4 and IGF1. HER2-negative p95-high patients had a marginally higher risk for death (HR=2.15, p=0.055). CONCLUSION: p95 was associated with higher HER2 CNVs and mRNA expression, pHER2Tyr877 expression and high Ki67, indicating a more aggressive phenotype.
