The aim of this study was to investigate the prognostic impact of two systemic inflammatory markers, the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and the monocyte-to-lymphocyte ratio (MLR), and their possible predictive role regarding the efficacy of adjuvant trastuzumab, in 209 early breast cancer cases, 107 of which were HER2-positive. Here, ERBB2 is linked to breast carcinoma.
