Re: study being done on herceptin with no chemo/for elderly patients

Hopefull,
You are correct about herceptin trial with DCIS.
I remember posting something on this a while back.
I will check and try to find the research and post it.

imdavidson, thank you for calling Genentech and being so pro active for all of us!!! I have always found when we reach out to dr.'s and companies they are always so thoughtful and helpful in answering our questions.

When we reflect back the last 10 years great strides have been achieved. The last 10 years I believe we have been exposed to some of the most profound research.
