Her 2 and Her 3 signalling and Dr M Moasser

Hi everyone
I have been reading the research from Dr Moasser about the relationship between her 2 and her 3 and the possible explanation of why herceptin alone may not be enough to contain bc.

He believes that it will be possible to eradicate advanced bc if we can get this combination right and 3 days (yes days) of no signalling kills the cells!!

Wondered if anyone had more info or knew if there were any trials yet?

He seems to be advocating short high doses of lapatinib with rapamycin, a drug I understand is used to stop rejection of transplanted organs.

Hope I have got the essence of this correct. If not maybe Lani, Steph or someone will chime in.

Ellie
