Hi Lori
I think you have hit on a really good point, Is a high dose best or is metronomic treatment the way forward. I know Rich has posted about this approach and there seems to be some positive results from xeloda and tykerb used in this way.
There seems to be a consensus that in about 5 years we will have wide range of targeted treatments that may not kill the beast for good but may keep him in his cage till the cure!
Hugs
Ellie
