The c-erbB2 receptor has also been traced using PET. Like EGFR, this receptor is also accessed routinely in breast cancer patients by immunohistochemistry for expression, or by fluorescence in situ hybridization for amplification, to inform patient management. Smith-Jones et al. [38] radiolabeled a F(ab)2 fragment of the anti-c-erbB2 antibody herceptin with Ga via a...

For some, while this has been touted as the way of the future, there is little doubt that, where effective, it reduces the chance of adverse effects and maximizes the possibility of a positive outcome. For example, the breast cancer drug tamoxifen, 24.4, is useful only for the treatment of estrogen-sensitive breast tumors, while the monoclonal antibody Herceptin is used on patients with tumors that overexpress the HER2 protein.
