Re: Abraxane VS Taxotere ?
Hi Kim,
I have been Ned almost two years on tykerb/ herceptin. It is a much easier combo then doing chemo. I guess I don't worry about saving tykerb for later because if the cancer comes back, then I will add in xeloda or go back on taxotere. I am also hoping it will keep me Ned until tdm1 is approved or who knows what other drugs that may be in the works.
Laurie
