Yes the Ki67 is the rate that the cancer is dividing. So I am presuming it is how they determine the grade of the cancer.
The grade or ki67 rate helps determine how it responds to chemo. The higher the rate the better it's response as chemo destroys rapidly dividing cells.
So that is why some ladies only have hormone treatment as it is less likely to respond to chemo but does well to be starved of it's source.
I had a her2 cancer so my rate was very high. That is the nature of her2 cancers.
Hope this helps. Kath x
