Abstract
Uterine serous carcinoma (USC) is an aggressive variant of endometrial cancer overexpressing HER2/neu in about 30% of cases. Trastuzumab, a humanized monoclonal antibody targeting Her2/Neu, in combination with carboplatin/paclitaxel, is considered the preferred regimen for the treatment of advanced or recurrent HER2/Neu+ USC per NCCN guidelines. We describe two USC patients with overexpression of HER2/neu at 2+/3+ level by immunohistochemistry...
