The study is a retrospective study of patients medical records and archived historical HER2 (human epidermal growth factor receptor) stained tumour biopsies / tissue specimens from patients with metastatic breast cancer (mBC) previously identified as HR-positive, HER2-negative.
There will be no changes to patient management for the purposes of any part of the study and no additional tests, investigations or visits will be required.
The population for this study is adult patients diagnosed with confirmed diagnosis of HR-positive HER2-negative, unresectable and/or mBC with a historical HER2 fixed tissue IHC stained slides (preferably stained using Ventana 4B5 assay) in acceptable quality for accurate rescoring.
