I have had 4 reoccurences of metastatic breast cancer in my lungs within the last 4 years despite being on Herceptin almost 4 years straight. I did about 8 months of Tykerb and Xeloda in the middle of the 4 years of Herceptin.

I am looking for a good next step. I am looking for a clinical trial in the Ohio area. I want a drug that will be effective and not interrupt my quality of life.

Does anyone have any advice? I have refused to have a 4th lung surgery.
