Re: Brain mets

Yes, of course I do, however it's easy to find publicly available info by simply Googling "lapatinib pulsed dosing". You'll see that there's a reasonable amount of evidence for the safety of this dosing regimen. (That does NOT mean it's side-effect free.) However the clinical evidence for the effectiveness (i.e., does it prevent brain mets in Her2 breast cancer) is thin and mostly informed guesswork (i.e., it should work based on what we know). That's what I meant when I said this treatment is "experimental."
