Hi Rich,

Thank you for this article. I have a question for you. In the second to last paragraph it says: Other studies reported at the conference this week strengthen the view that Zometa works best with women with little estrogen. A consistent picture is emerging, Ravdin said.

Do you know what other study he is refering to? It sounds like they are determining that Zometa works well in ER- women. That would be superb. I would like to take a look at what he is refering to and address my oncologist on the matter. Have you any information on this?

Thanks as always..
