Re: TDM1 EAP -Good news for those in TDM1 EAP who need to travel
Great news, Chrisy! Thanks for sharing. I am participating in a T-DM1 trial in Charleston, SC, traveling from Atlanta. The trial is going well for me. I just found out on Friday, after 9 weeks on the trial, that the T-DM1 is working! My tumors have either shrunken or remained stable. I had not anticipated when I signed on for the trial how difficult the traveling would be. It is the worst part of the experience for me, so your news is very welcome. Thanks! Ann
