promising drug regimen for slowing growth of breast cancer
Is this news new? How about Tykerb combo with vinorelbine and capecitabine?
...............The trial mixed two chemotherapy drugs, called capecitabine and vinorelbine, and a drug called Herceptin, used to treat patients whose breast cancer is the aggressive HER2-positive form.............
