Hello all,

I am going crazy trying to get Pertuzumab in France but as you know the guidelines (FDA Europe...), it is for first line or for never treated metastatic patients.
In the States I see that the Drs give it anyway. And some on this board are doing well in that setting.
I did not have Pertuzumab before TDM1/Kadcyla simply because it was not available.
Does someone know of a country, closer for me than the US where I could get Pertuzumab even with charge.
You can PM me if you wish.
They want to give me Halaven and Tykerb. I am convinced I could do better than that. Am I wrong?
Love to all.

Hi ! I am stage 4 and have been stable with Herceptin and Pertuzumab for 2 1/2 years. I was previously on TDM1 for 4 1/2 years,stopping because of liver issues. I hope you can get this combo. Good Luck!
