The occurrence of HER2 + breast cancer subtype was 40% in our LFS case series, which is greater than that in the general population (16-25%). Some TP53 PVs may facilitate HER2-derived oncogenesis in breast cancer. However, further studies with larger sample sizes are warranted to clarify the oncogenic mechanisms underlying each subtype of breast cancer in TP53 PV carriers.
