Rich,
Thanks for your reply. I will be looking through all of the sites you provided. I just finished Herceptin/Taxatere/Carboplatin which is now not working. For 9 years, I have had many chemos-Taxanes, (very effective all of them),Xeloda (very effective), Gemzar and Navelbine(not effective) Yes, I had Tykerb with Abraxane. It was a good combo; but even the good combos only work so long! I am er, and pr positive, but have not had much help from Tamoxifen or Aromasin. Femara seems to have helped for a while, (more than several months in 2001), but maybe I would have been in remission then anyway because I had just ended a very successful chemo-Herceptin/Taxatere that put me in a near complete remission. I have not had Herceptin together with Tykerb yet (Study shows some synergy.) and have not had Avastin (but worry about bleeding issues for Avastin) (Metronomic dosing looks good, but I do not think it is done much where I am.) Thus, right now I am looking at Ixempra or Doxil+-/Herceptin. Lida
