Great news,

let's hope everolimus/afinitor gains approval from the FDA as soon as possible.

I'm also looking forward to see the results of the others two phase III trials, bolero 1 and bolero 3, which are looking at the combination of everolimus and herceptin for metastatic her2 pos breast cancer.
