Our study aimed to explore the relationship between different HER2 fluorescence in situ hybridisation (FISH) patterns in HER2-positive patients with breast cancer and responses to anti-HER2 NACT. Methods 527 patients with HER2-positive invasive breast cancer who received anti-HER2 NACT from 2015 to 2022 were included and divided into three groups by FISH results, namely group A: HER2/CEP17\u003C2 .0 and HER2 copy numbers ≥6 .0, HER2 immunohistochemistry 2/3+; group B: HER2/CEP17≥2 .0 and HER2  \ncopy numbers ≥4 .0 and \u003C6 .0; group C: HER2/ CEP17≥2 .0 and HER2 copy numbers ≥6 .0. We compared clinicopathological characteristics and pathological complete response (pCR) rates of different groups. Results According to HER2 FISH results, 12 patients (2 . 3%, 12/527) were in group A, 40 (7 .6%, 40/527) were in group B and 475 (90 . 1%, 475/527) were in group C. The pCR rate was the lowest in group B (5 .0%), while the pCR rates in group A and group C were 33. 3% and 44.4%, respectively (p (group A vs. B) =0.021, p (group C vs. B) \u003C 0.001) . Both univariate and multivariate analyses revealed that HER2 FISH pattern was correlated with pCR rate (p (group C vs. B) \u003C 0.001, p (group C vs. B) = 0.025) . Conclusions Patients with HER2/CEP17≥2 .0 and HER2 copy numbers ≥4 .0 and \u003C6 .0 do not benefit to the same extent from current anti-HER2 therapies as FISH-positive patients with other patterns.  \nINTRODUCTION  \nHuman epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) is one of the biomarkers routinely tested in invasive breast cancer. HER2-positive breast cancer patients account for 15%–20% of all breast cancer cases.1 HER2 positivity is associated with a highly aggressive clinical course in breast cancer. Moreover, HER2-positive status is an important predictive marker of response to anti-HER2 targeted therapy.2 Adjuvant chemotherapy plus anti-HER2 targeted treatment may prolong disease-free survival (DFS) and improve the prognosis of HER2-positive patients.3  \nWHAT IS ALREADY KNOWN ON THIS TOPIC  \n\n| ⇒ The response of HER2-positive patients to trastuzumab was positively related to the average HER2 copy number.
