After insurance refusal to pay for Pertuzumab and we couldn't get into T-DM1 trial, we are back to estradiol and it appears to be working again. Wish us luck that it'll work for a few months. Note that this was what Dr. Matthew Ellis discovered (estradiol also work the 2nd time around) several years ago. Also there was a poster at 2012 SABCS repeating the same estradiol experiments.
