Can anyone explain the differences between HER2 positive and HER2 negative please

Hi
There is a Maccy info page about HER2+ with links to further info and treatments you can find by clicking this link.
Those who are found to be her2+ are offered 'targetted' biogical therapies in conjunction with chemotherapy.
Hope this is of some help, G n' J (who had her2+ breast cancer 7 years back)
