Re: Intrathecal Herceptin/Topotecan for Leptomeningeal Disease
Ommaya does not need any other protection than you normally do. They put the Ommaya into the head and it is just like a vaccine when they give the treatment. It is the same Herceptin as used via IV. They use 5 mls of sterile saline or water for injection to dissolve the amount of material targeted. Please contact me via private message and I will give you the contact information at MD Anderson and they will take your doctor's call to let you know what was done for Nina. All I want to tell you is that this will take a compassionate care protocol at the hospital there. I will do everything I can to help you.
