Intrathecal (IT) Herceptin (Trastuzumab) for brain mets (Leptomeningeal Metastases)

Here's an update:

Till now my wife took 30, 30, 50, 50 and 60 mg intrathecal herceptin together with some steroid, one dose every week, escalating this way, and 6 mg per kilo intravenous herceptin, one dose every three weeks. Side effects are none, not even a headache anymore. MRI will be done next week, will post results here. Fingers crossed.
