Emerging evidence indicates that breast cancer (BC) patients whose tumours express HER2 protein without HER2 gene amplification (HER2‐low), can benefit from antibody–drug conjugates (ADC). However, the current definition of HER2‐low BC remains incomplete with low rates of concordance. This study aims to refine HER2‐low definition with emphasis on distinguishing HER2 score 0 from score 1+ to identify patients who are eligible for ADC.
