Re: PERJETA + Herceptin + docetaxel nearly doubled pCR rates vs Herceptin-- NeoSphere
When will they get to more personalized treatment. I suspect that four doses of Docetaxol and carboplatin were more than enough, that surgery and rads were unnecessary and that 16 doses of Herceptin was more than required for systemic treatment. As it stands I had central nervous system occult disease that was untreated even as I too had a PCR last year.
