Laboratory assay overview
This test is used for the quantitative measure of HER-2/ neu in human serum. HER-2/ neu values obtained may be used in the follow-up and monitoring of patients with metastatic breast cancer. HER-2/ neu values should be used in conjunction with information available from clinical and other diagnostic procedures in the management of breast cancer. The clinical utility of the measurement of HER-2/ neu as a prognostic indicator for early recurrence and in the management of patients on immunotherapy regimens has not been fully established.
