Dr. Pegram at UCLA indicated to me that Tykerb's main benefit would be in preventing brain lesions. success in reducing the size of existing lesions was in the single digits.

Whether someone had time to try the tykerb and see if it helped would depend on the individual situation and whether there was need for urgency in taking action sooner.

I would discuss it with the neurosurgeon and get a second opinion on it.
