Tamoxifen & Herceptin

[kalogria]

Hello everyone

Could anyone please direct me to the latest research on the debate about Tamoxifen and Herceptin. I am referring to the Jekyll and Hyde question - the possibility that these two drugs work against each other and that Tamoxifen when given with Herceptin can actually CAUSE new tumours to form.

Any information gratefully received.
