Re: Neratinib Clinical Trial

Lapatinib was not offered to me. At the time, the trial for Lapatinib was offered only as adjuvent therapy, and I, like you had neo-adjuvent. I am now on the Neratinib trial for just over 6 months...

Re: Neratinib Clinical Trial

I am glad to report that I am nearing the half way mark--almost six months since I started the trial. The first month or two were pretty difficult. But I just kept in mind that I was doing all I...

Re: Neratinib Clinical Trial

So here I am, six weeks into the trial. I still get really bad bouts of diarrhea, and feel weak and queasy--but I do get a few good days in between the lousy ones. I still don't know what is good...

Re: Neratinib Clinical Trial

Well, I'm back to feeling the side effects, or what I think are the side effects of Neratinib. I always think I must be used to it by now, and then I have a few rough days. I, too, am much more...

Re: Neratinib Clinical Trial

I don't know what to think. I am 13 days into the trial. Had the blessed runs for the first 11 days--now, NOTHING!!! Could it mean that I have already gotten used to the drug? They say it usually...

Re: Neratinib Clinical Trial

I don't think it means anything just yet. Some of the women didn't feel anything for the first few days. I also read in Wyeth's website, that 15% of the women taking the drug didn't get diarrhea. ...

Re: Neratinib Clinical Trial

So, today I officially joined the Neratinib trial. Seeing as I only took the pills 9 hours ago, I guess I can't determine anything out of the ordinary. My doctor told me there are some that get the...
