Abstract:
Breast cancer has the highest incidence rate among all malignancies in women. The expression of estrogen receptors (ERs), progesterone receptors (PRs), human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 (HER-2), and Ki-67 changes to varying degrees after neoadjuvant chemotherapy. Whether the mechanism underlying these changes will affect the choice of subsequent treatment options remains unknown. We summarize the research progress of neoadjuvant chemotherapy on the expression of ER, PR, HER-2 and Ki-67 in breast cancer.
