Updated 2023 guidelines from the College of American Pathologists (CAP) on immunohistochemical detection of human epidermal growth factor receptor type 2 (HER2), receptors of estrogen (ER) and progesterone (PgR), and the cell proliferation marker Ki-67 in breast cancer are presented. Attention is drawn to the emergence of two new terms «ER Low Positive» and «HER2 Low» to characterize tumors with low expression of estrogen receptors and HER2.

Keywords:

breast cancer
human epidermal growth factor receptor type 2
HER2 expression
ER expression
PgR expression
Ki-67 expression
HER2 Low
