A3. 60% of HER2-negative breast cancers are scored as IHC 1+ or IHC 2+ (and were also ISH negative) and can now be classified as HER2-low. Schettini F, et al. NPJ Breast Cancer. 2021;7:1-13. #HER2low #PathTwitter #BreastPath
A2. Use this new distinction - her2low will be helpful to the clinical team. Discussion between the #pathology and clinical team is important. #PathTwitter, #BreastPath @DrBuiPathology @feldmanm30 @mkw_MD @oreganruth @ASCP_Chicago
Q2: Should pathologists use the phrase “HER2-low” in their pathology reports? Why or why not? #HER2low #PathTwitter #BreastPath @DrBuiPathology @feldmanm30 @mkw_MD @oreganruth
A2. ASCO/CAP 2018 guidelines haven't adopted #Her2low nomenclature yet but FDA guidance on 4B5 clone suggest using #Her2low semantic in a note. Personally, I have started using it #HER2low #PathTwitter #BreastPath

A1. Future Her2 assay development will benefit from move to more quantitative approaches calibrated a cross a linear set of Her2 controls #HER2low #PathTwitter #BreastPath

Now that the next stimulus package, which includes parts of @ASCP_Chicago national testing strategy, is on its way to the presidents desk, we need a way to make sure funding in this bill is distributed appropriately. ASCP is leading the way asking for a #PandemicTestingTaskForce
