Any new Tykerb Clinical trial

[Rupali]

Hi all,
As you might recollect from my last posts that my insurance company declined Tykerb. Also what happened is that my LVEF came to be 45% so I am now in the waiting stages for the LVEF to go back.
I am Stage 3A and want to take Tykerb on a preventive basis.

One thing the oncolcogist told me is that if there is a new clinical trial that comes out in which they are giving Tykerb to patients who had had Herceptin then she could fight with insurance to give it as off label.
Does anyone of you know of any such new upcoming clincial trials for Tykerb.

Michele, how are u managing with the diarreah and are you still taking Tykerb.
Another question I have is that how much time are the Stage 3's taking Tykerb.

DOes anyone know if in Canada Stage 3's can get Herceptin from the Government Health system.

Regards,
Rupali
