ixempra or her2 drugs?
As a result of progression after a short time on Avastin/Abraxane Caryn's Onc has suggested Ixempra. Anyone with any experience on this drug?
Also, it doesn't appear to me that she has had much success with chemos but she has responded to her2 targeted therapies. The Onc wants to take a break from her2 therapies since she did herceptin until '06 then has been on and off (mostly due to side effects - liver enzymes) several trial drugs targeting her2. With the cancer now in her liver and pancreas I'm anxious to knock the cancer back. I have more confidence in her2 based therapies but I respect the docs thoughts to take a break and have as ammo later on. I welcome your thoughts?
