Correlation between classical prognostic factors and overexpression of HER2 and HER3 in localized gastric cancer

e14589 Background: Although HER2 overexpression has been identified as a predictive factor for targeted therapy in advanced gastric cancer (GC), little is known about its role in localized GC. Recent studies suggest that not only HER2 but also HER3 might have a role in prognosis in GC. Our study aimed to identify the prevalence of HER2 and HER3 overexpression in a series of localized GC and to describe correlations of these with traditional prognostic factors Methods: We performed a retrospective analysis of HER2 and HER3 overexpression in archived tumour samples in pts diagnosed with GC at stage I-III. HER2 was assessed with herceptest, (negative if 0 or 1+, or positive with 2+ or 3+). St…
