2 Science Jan 9;235(4785): Human breast cancer: correlation of relapse and survival with amplification of the HER-2/neu oncogene. The HER-2/neu oncogene is a member of the erbB-like oncogene family, and is related to, but distinct from, the epidermal growth factor receptor. This gene has been shown to be amplified in human breast cancer cell lines. In the current study, alterations of the gene in 189 primary human breast cancers were investigated. HER-2/neu was found to be amplified from 2- to greater than 20-fold in 30% of the tumors. Correlation of gene amplification with several disease parameters was evaluated. Amplification of the HER-2/neu gene was a significant predictor of both overall survival and time to relapse in patients with breast cancer. It retained its significance even when adjustments were made for other known prognostic factors. Moreover, HER-2/neu amplification had greater prognostic value than most currently used prognostic factors, including hormonal-receptor status, in lymph node-positive disease. These data indicate that this gene may play a role in the biologic behavior and/or pathogenesis of human breast cancer.

5 HER1, HER2, HER3, and HER4 (also called epidermal growth factor receptors ErbB-1, ErbB-2, ErB-3, and ErB-4, respectively) are transmembrane tyrosine kinase receptors with partial homology that normally regulate cell growth and survival, as well as adhesion, migration, differentiation, and other cellular responses Each of these receptors consists of an extracellular binding domain, a transmembrane lipophilic segment, and (except for HER3) a functional intracellular tyrosine kinase domain.

7 The tyrosine kinase domains are activated by both homodimerization and heterodimerization, generally induced by ligand binding. In contrast to the extracellular domains of the three other HER receptors, the extracellular domain of HER2 can adopt a fixed conformation resembling a ligand-activated state, permitting it to dimerize in the absence of a ligand Receptor overexpression or mutation can also induce dimerization HER2 is the preferred dimerization partner for the other HER family members

8 Figure 1. Signal Transduction by the HER Family and Potential Mechanisms of Action of Trastuzumab. As shown in Panel A, the four members of the HER family are HER1, HER2, HER3, and HER4. There are receptor-specific ligands for HER1, HER3, and HER4. An intracellular tyrosine kinase domain exists for HER1, HER2, and HER4. Phosphorylation of the tyrosine kinase domain by means of homodimerization or heterodimerization induces both cell proliferation and survival signaling. HER2 is the preferred dimerization partner for the other HER family members. The phosphorylated (activated) tyrosine residues on the intracellular domain of HER2 activate the lipid kinase phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3-K), which phosphorylates a phosphatidylinositol that in turn binds and phosphorylates the enzyme Ak transforming factor (Akt), driving cell survival. In parallel, a guanine nucleotide exchange factor, the mammalian homologue of the son of sevenless (SOS), activates the rat sarcoma (RAS) enzyme that, in turn, activates receptor activation factor (RAF) and then the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) and mitogen extracellular signal kinase (MEK). MEK phosphorylates, among others, the MAPK, driving cellular proliferation. One of many other downstream effects is the production of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) supporting angiogenesis. The most well-documented potential mechanisms of action are shown in Panels B through F. Cleavage of the extracellular domain of HER2 leaves a membrane-bound phosphorylated p95, which can activate signal-transduction pathways (Panel B). Binding of trastuzumab to a juxtamembrane domain of HER2 reduces shedding of the extracellular domain, thereby reducing p95 (Panel C). Trastuzumab may reduce HER2 signaling by physically inhibiting either homodimerization, as shown, or heterodimerization (Panel D). Trastuzumab may recruit Fc-competent immune effector cells and the other components of antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity, leading to tumor-cell death (Panel E). Additional mechanisms such as receptor down-regulation through endocytosis have been postulated (Panel F). Hudis C. N Engl J Med 2007;357:39-51

18 Approximately 20% of current HER2 testing may be inaccurate.
When carefully validated testing is performed, available data do not clearly demonstrate the superiority of either immunohistochemistry (IHC) or in situ hybridization (ISH) as a predictor of benefit from anti-HER2 therapy.

25 Intracellular Effects
Induction of apoptosis Decrease proliferation HER2 down regulation Decrease VGEF production Potentiation of chemotherapy Altered cross talk with others sgnal path Interactions between Trastuzumab and Tumor Cells. HER2 serves as a coreceptor with related members of the HER family of tyrosine kinase-associated growth factors. Acquired amplification of the HER2/neu gene on chromosome 17 in HER2-positive breast cancer leads to marked overexpression of HER2 on the cell surface, which alters normal signaling function. Trastuzumab is a humanized monoclonal antibody that binds to HER2 and inhibits tumor-cell growth through a variety of intracellular, and possibly extracellular, mechanisms. Burstein H.

47 Pertuzumab and Trastuzumab bind distinct epitopes on HER2
Omnitarg and Herceptin bind to different and nonoverlapping regions (epitopes) on the extracellular domain of the HER2 receptor protein. The mechanism of action of Omnitarg is inhibition of HER dimerization; Herceptin does not affect HER dimerization. Omnitarg is potentially more broadly applicable than Herceptin across a number of tumor types, including tumors that do not overexpress HER2 or show HER2 gene amplification. Protects against receptor shedding Has no effect on role of HER2 as a coreceptor Inhibits HER2-mediated signaling pathways Applicable to breast cancer tumors that overexpress HER2 Does not prevent receptor shedding Has a major effect on role of HER2 as a coreceptor Inhibits multiple HER-mediated signaling pathways Potentially applicable across a wide range of tumor types
