Özet
Purpose: The clinical value of HER4 - a cell surface receptor that belongs to the human epidermal growth factor receptor family - for predicting survival outcomes in patients with breast cancer remains controversial. Herein, we sought to investigate the prognostic significance of HER4 immunohistochemical expression with respect to progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) in Turkish patients with metastatic breast cancer (MBC).
