Disclosed herein are methods for detecting the presence and/or amount of HER2 protein, HER2 nucleic acid (for example, HER2 genomic DNA), ER protein, and Chromosome 17 centromere DNA in a single sample. Samples stained for HER2 protein, HER2 DNA, ER protein, and Chromosome 17 DNA allow for the identification of various types of cancer cells, for example HER2 protein positive/ER protein positive/HER2 gene positive cells, HER2 protein positive/ER protein negative/HER2 gene positive cells, HER2 protein negative/ER protein positive/HER2 gene positive cells, and HER2 protein negative/ER protein negative/HER2 gene positive cells. |
