Question on Herceptin dosing.
I have a lady i'm helping at work that has just been dx. she doesn't know yet if she is HER2 positive, but the onc. told her if she was that she would do 12 weeks of Taxol and Herceptin then quit?! I know the Finland trial said that it did the same as a year, but how many of us are only doing 12 weeks? I'm a little leary about that.
