I had Perjeta for 2 1/2 years as a trial drug for stage 4 patients only.
Last year I progressed and was given subcut. Herceptin. It was much quicker but sometimes uncomfortable. Especially if given when too cold! Had injection for 13 months and now back to IV's. I have often wondered if the injection was the best way to have it!

Perjeta still a trial drug here ( Scotland) & always by IV.
