The Rapidly Evolving Landscape of Human Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor 2 (HER2) Testing in Endometrial Carcinoma and Other Gynecologic Malignancies.
Context.—: Trastuzumab in combination with standard chemotherapy has been included in the guideline recommendations for human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive advanced-stage and recurrent endometrial carcinomas since 2019. A novel antibody drug conjugate, trastuzumab deruxtecan, gained tumor agnostic approval for HER2-positive metastatic solid tumors, including endometrial, ovarian, and cervical cancer in 2024.
Objective.—: To provide a detailed overview of HER2 protein expression, gene amplification, and mutation in gynecologic malignancies in light of the newly available anti-HER2 therapies. Tumor-specific HER2 testing and scoring algorithms are discussed, including the implications of the DESTINY-PanTumor02 trial results and the significance of the HER2-low tumor category.
Data sources.—: Review of the literature and personal experience of the author.
Conclusions.—: The clinical indications and demand for HER2 testing in gynecologic malignancies beyond endometrial cancer are expanding. It is essential for practicing pathologists to stay up-to date on the latest clinical developments and use evidence-based HER2 testing and scoring criteria.
