Hi everyone,
If any of you could please let me know where I can find information that will support the use of Avastin in her2 BC....I would really appreciate it.
There was a posting about a month or so ago that Al and Joe both responded to reagarding this subject. My Onc has spoke with a rep from the makers of Avastin and it was indicated that Avastin was not beneficial to BC???? So, of course she is steering me away from it.
Al, you said that the majority of those tested were not her2+++, but that maybe the her2 +++ folks had better response??? If you could please let me know where I can find this info and give it to my Onc...that would be great.
Thanks for your help.....Amy
