Industry outlook
According to the National Cancer Institute, 78% of the estimated 276,480 new cases of breast cancer every year are HER2 negative. For those who are HER2 negative and hormone-receptor positive (68% of breast cancers), chemotherapy remains the standard of care in over 90% of cases once past front-line therapy.
