The combined model had an AUC of 0.808, a sensitivity of 88.72%, a specificity of 60.87%, and an accuracy of 75.81% in predicting pCR of HER2-positive breast cancer after NACT, which was significantly better than the clinicopathological model (AUC = 0.656) and the US model (AUC = 0.769). Here, ERBB2 is linked to breast cancer.
