Greetings,

I was recently diagnosed with a new primary HER 2 neu positive breast cancer, stage 1, no lymph node involvement. I just started the TCH chemo regimen but am wondering if anyone has heard of early stage patients receiving the Tykerb/Herceptin combo outside of the clinical trials?

Thanks so much in advance for any advice!
