This study aims to investigate clinicopathological parameters that can predict the response to neoadjuvant treatment in HER2 +breast cancers and to explore the roles of tumour-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs), CD8 +T lymphocytes and PD-L1 expression. Methods This single-centre retrospective study was conducted with 85 HER2-positive breast cancer patients who underwent surgery after receiving neoadjuvant therapy between January 2017 and January 2020. Paraffin blocks from these patients were selected for immunohistochemical studies.  \nResults A complete pathological response to neoadjuvant treatment was determined in 39 (45.9%) patients. High Ki-67 index (> 30%), moderate to high TIL infiltration, PD-L1 positivity and high CD8 cell count (≥25) were significantly associated with pCR in univariate analyses (p: 0.023, 0.025, 0.017 and 0.003, respectively) . Multivariate regression analysis identified high Ki-67 index (> 30%) and CD8 cell infiltration as independent predictors for pCR in HER2-positive breast cancer. Conclusions High Ki-67 index, and high CD8 cell count are strong predictors for pCR in HER2-positive breast cancer. Tumours with high Ki-67 index, high TILs and CD8 infiltration may represent a subgroup where standard therapies are adequate. Conversely, those with low TILs and CD8 infiltration may identify a subgroup where use of novel strategies, including those that increase CD8 infiltration could be applied.  \nKeywords HER2 +breast cancer · Neoadjuvant therapy · Response · CD8 · PD-L1  \n􀀍 Kenan Çetin [drkenancetin@hotmail.com](drkenancetin@hotmail.com)[ ](drkenancetin@hotmail.com)Şermin Kökten[serminkokten@gmail.com](serminkokten@gmail.com)[ ](serminkokten@gmail.com)Bahar Sarıkamış [baharsarikamis@gmail.com](baharsarikamis@gmail.com)[ ](baharsarikamis@gmail.com)Sedat Yıldırım[azrass17@hotmail.com](azrass17@hotmail.com)  \nOruç Numan Gökçe[orucnumangokce@gmail.com](orucnumangokce@gmail.com)[ ](orucnumangokce@gmail.com)Nagehan Özdemir Barışık[nagehanob@yahoo.com](nagehanob@yahoo.com)  \nÜlkan Kılıç  \n[ulkan.kilic@sbu.edu.tr](ulkan.kilic@sbu.edu.tr)  \n1 Department of General Surgery, Faculty of Medicine,Çanakkale Onsekiz Mart University, Çanakkale, Turkey  \n2 Department of Pathology, University of Health Sciences, Kartal Dr. Lutfi Kırdar Training and Research Hospital, Istanbul, Turkey  \n3 Department of Medical Biology, Faculty of Medicine, University of Health Sciences, Istanbul, Turkey  \n4 Department of Medical Oncology, University of Health Sciences, Kartal Dr. Lutfi Kırdar Training and Research Hospital, Istanbul, Turkey  \nIntroduction  \nGlobally, breast cancer is the most diagnosed malignancy, with over two million cases reported each year [1] . It is also a leading cause of cancer-related deaths among women worldwide. It is a heterogeneous disease group consisting of different subtypes that exhibit varying tumour biology and behaviour. Approximately 20–30% of all breast cancers overexpress the human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) [2] . Breast cancers that overexpress HER2 can achieve a pathological complete response (pCR) with anti-HER2 agents when given in combination with chemotherapy.
