| Abstract Text | HER3 activating mutations have been shown in preclinical models to be oncogenic and ligand-independent, but to depend on kinase-active HER2.Whole-exome sequencing of the primary HER2-negative breast cancer and its HER2-negative synchronous liver metastasis from a 46-year-old female revealed the presence of an activating and clonal HER3 G284R mutation.HER2 dual blockade with trastuzumab and lapatinib as third-line therapy led to complete metabolic response in 2 weeks and confirmed radiological partial response after 8 weeks. Following the resection of the liver metastasis, the patient remains disease-free 40 weeks after initiation of the HER2 dual blockade therapy. Immunohistochemical analysis demonstrated a substantial reduction of phospho-rpS6 and phospho-AKT in the post-therapy biopsy of the liver metastasis.This is the first-in-man evidence that anti-HER2 therapies are likely effective in breast cancers harboring HER3 activating mutations. | ||||||||||||

| ERBB3 G284R | breast cancer | predicted - sensitive | Lapatinib + Trastuzumab | Case Reports/Case Series | Actionable | In a clinical case study, the combination treatment of Herceptin (trastuzumab) and Tykerb (lapatinib) in a patient with breast cancer harboring ERBB3 (HER3) G284R resulted in antitumor efficacy, demonstrating a complete metabolic response after day 14 of treatment, a partial response after 8 weeks of treatment, and no clinical evidence of disease after 40 weeks of treatment (PMID: 25953157). | 25953157 |
