  1. aHER2 eligibility was determined by site local laboratory data.
  2. bFISH-negative tumour was IHC 0; non-evaluable: one was IHC 0, one was IHC1+, one was IHC3+; borderline was IHC2+.
  3. cFISH non-evaluable tumours: one was IHC1+, one was IHC2+, one was IHC3+.
  4. dFISH borderline tumour was IHC 0.
