How to treat HER2 positive relapse

summary

Now we should understand HER2 positive recurrence, HER2 is a proto oncogene, no matter what, and human body's normal cell membrane surface contains a small amount of HER2 protein, and this protein plays an important role in cell growth factor signal transduction pathway. HER2 positive breast cancer is a kind of breast cancer, but HER2 breast cancer has a high recurrence rate and mortality, is the most dangerous of all breast cancer. Because HER2 breast cancer cells are easy to metastasize, and easy to relapse, the survival rate is low, so the survival time is much shorter than other types of breast cancer patients. How to treat HER2 positive recurrence.

How to treat HER2 positive relapse

First, because the human body already contains a small amount of HER2 protein, once the content of this protein in the body is slightly higher, it will cause HER2 breast cancer cell proliferation and proliferation. In general, the survival time of HER2 positive breast cancer patients is only half of that of HER2 negative breast cancer patients.

Second, HER2 positive breast cancer can be targeted by drugs. If drug targeted therapy has been carried out, the survival time of HER2 positive breast cancer patients is close to that of HER2 negative breast cancer patients, and the life span can be doubled.

Third: if HER2 positive breast cancer is treated in the early stage, drug targeted therapy can ensure the recurrence free survival of cancer cells within 10 years after treatment, greatly reduce the recurrence rate and death risk of patients, and also enable patients to regain the chance of cure.

matters needing attention

The survival time of HER2 positive breast cancer patients is not certain, according to the different treatment effect, the survival time is also different. Therefore, patients with HER2 positive breast cancer should not despair, and actively cooperate with the treatment may be cured.
