    HER2 is a predictive biomarker for HER2 targeted therapy


    Here, the authors report a positive correlation between the early endosomal marker RAB5A and T-DM1 sensitivity in 5 HER2 positive cell lines


    The increasing attention to personalized medicine and our growing knowledge of cancer biology have revealed the great potential of biomarkers in cancer treatment


    HER2 (ERBB2) is a proven biomarker for breast cancer.


    The ability of HER2 to accept receptor-mediated endocytosis also makes this transmembrane protein a candidate protein for delivering cytotoxic agents to cancer cells


    After administration, T-DM1 binds to HER2 and enters cells through HER2-mediated endocytosis


    Correlation between T-DM1 and RAB GTPase in the I-SPY2 cohort

    The mechanism of action of T-DM1 is obviously more complicated than that of HER2 targeting mAbs and TKIs, and the authors have assessed whether this is reflected in biomarkers that can be used to predict drug response


    In this work, the authors report the correlation between T-DM1 treatment response and RAB5A expression levels
