My sister is due to start on the new UCLA trial for Herceptin once a week and Avastin every other week. She is HR2+ and they have found nodules in the lungs. I know there are others out there going through this. Please contact me if you are included in this trial.

I am not on the trial but would very much appreciate any information you might have to share. In February, I had a consult with Dr. Dennis Slamon and thought he mentioned the Herceptin/Avastin combo but when I mentioned it to my onc, she seem incredulous. After that, I started wondering if my memory played tricks on me. Thanks and best wishes to your sister.

I am not on a trial but am currently taking Herceptin/Avastin as well as Carboplatin/Taxol.

Appreciate any experience you care to share about using avastin, as I am trying to get it, with gemcitabine/cisplatin.
thanks,
Theresa

Iam half way through this trial. Going well, my oncologist was unable to find my breast tumor manuall last week and I'm awating scan results next Tue[23rdMay]
Hoping my secondary lung spots have gone as well.
Hope this is cheering to you but feel this is not the same trial as you are on.
Good Luck to you anyway
