Low HER2-expressing glioblastomas are more often secondary to anaplastic transformation of low-grade glioma

Background Anti-Human Epithelial Receptor Type 2 (HER2) antibodies have the ability to induce in vitro apoptosis of glioblastoma (GBM) cells. This study was designed to evaluate the variability of HER2 expression in GBM and its role as a possible prognosis factor.
