Could Zometa,Fluvastatin & Herceptin act in synergy?

Two unrelated laboratory experiments indicate that on one hand Zometa enhance Fluvastatin (an approved anticholesterol drug also called Lescol) & on the other hand Fluvastatin enhances the activity of Herceptin.

All three drugs are approved & have relatively moderate side effects.
Could they be combined in treating breast cancer patients?
Anyone willing to ask her onc?
