I have not heard that t dm-1 9 kadcyla) crosses bbb. I guess that includes spinal fluid , but could attack bone mets anywhere. perhaps that's why your doc wants to try it. any metastatic her2 pt. who hasn't tried tdm-1 should definitely give it a try. my wife is 3 yrs on it, ned over 2. i hear adding perjeta increases its effectiveness.
tykerb crosses bbb, and some say avastin does. IT Herceptin is another brain tx at some research hospitals like md Anderson. lani and rolepaul know a lot.
