The threshold level for hormone receptor positivity was changed in 2010 and now requires more than 1% positive tumor nuclei are found in the tumor sample. [14] Newer techniques for categorising breast cancer are based on gene expression in the tumor which classifies breast cancer into: [15] [16] luminal A (HR+/HER2-) 68%; luminal B (HR+/HER2+) 10%
