Jackie the quote from Dr. Slamon referred to the arbitrary setting of one year as the length of treatment in the adjuvant setting (preventative) NOT in the metastatic (Stage IV) setting. Apples vs oranges

The 9 week trial was done in Finland and is referred to as the FINHER study and used some unusual chemos given in unusual sequence.
