The present invention provides MEL-18, which is a biomarker for human epidermal growth factor receptor2 (HER2)-positive cancer and anti-HER2 therapy, and a use thereof. According to the present invention, MEL-18 is a prognostic factor or predictor for a response of subjects to an anti-HER2-targeted drug in HER2-POSITIVE cancer and may be used in companion diagnostics for HER2-targeted drugs in subjects with HER2-positive cancer. Therefore, HER2-positive cancer may be more effectively treated by overcoming resistance to HER2 therapeutic agents and enhancing therapeutic efficacy by determining whether ADAM10/17 inhibitors are administered or co-administered with HER2-targeted drugs.
