Re: Denied compassionate use of TDM1

Hope your onc is right about 9 /15. I know first hand that some oncs spread rumors too. As recently as a few weeks ago, in July , ( 2 wks ? ), i heard that Gen hadnt even turned in the final package of data from EMILIA to This FDA. And even the " Old ", pre - Obama Admin. FDA took 3 -6 months to approve after getting final data. Final data was NOT ready when everyone was crowing about t dm-1 at ASCO in June .
I hope its true !! It will be here soon , and wouldnt it be something if , in the not so distant future, if you are even newly dx w/ her2 , and your FISH scale or other her2 measures are high, you could get t dm-1 right away !! And even better tx's someday !
