Table 2 New proposal for surrogate definitions of intrinsic subtypes of HER2-negative, endocrine-responsive breast cancer a

From: Proposed new clinicopathological surrogate definitions of luminal A and luminal B (HER2-negative) intrinsic breast cancer subtypes

Intrinsic subtypes

Clinicopathological surrogate definitions

Luminal A

“Luminal A–like”

All of:

ER-positive

HER2-negative

And at least one of:

Ki-67 low expression (<14%)

Ki-67 intermediate expression (14% to 19%) and PgR high expression (≥20%)

Luminal B (HER2-negative)

“Luminal B–like (HER2-negative)”

 

All of:

ER-positive

HER2-negative

And at least one of:

Ki-67 intermediate expression (14% to -19) and PgR negative or low expression (<20%)

Ki-67 high expression (≥20%)

  1. aER, Estrogen receptor; HER2, Human epidermal growth factor receptor 2; PgR, Progesterone receptor.
