The effect of HER2 status on oncological outcomes of patients with invasive bladder cancer

More than one third of RC patients overexpress HER2 in their tumors. HER2 overexpression was associated with features of biological and clinical aggressiveness. HER2 did not add prognostic significance to the standard established predictors of survival outcomes after RC. However, due to the high overexpression rate, it could represent a target for therapy in select advanced BCa tumors.
