Introduction: Rare mutations of the ESR1gene, encoding the estrogen receptor alpha (ERα), have been shown to cause estrogen resistance in humans. To date, there are no effective therapeutic options. We report the case of a new inactivating mutation of ERα and provide evidence for a partial restoration of biological effects of estrogen.Methods: We performed clinical and biological phenotyping of the index case and sequenced the ESR1...
