HER2 as a prognostic factor in breast cancer.

abstract：:Breast tumorigenesis is a continuum from preinvasive lesions to early breast cancer and advanced disease. In this article the data supporting the use of the aromatase inhibitor anastrozole in postmenopausal women across this continuum are reviewed. In advanced disease, anastrozole has a significant survival benefit an...
