Can Herceptin Wipe Out Cancer Stem Cells?

[Ellie F]

Hi Amelia
Thanks for your reply.I did 4 rounds of AC with very little change and a 'disappointing' report from the pathologist according to my onc! He went onto only give me herceptin and in my ignorance I thought this was alright. it was only a year later when I recurred in the contra lateral axillary lymph glands did I get another opinion and several rounds of taxotere with herceptin.My onc is saying I will stay on herceptin long term in the hope of keeping it at bay but if it recurs again will add to not take away herceptin.
Cheers Ellie
