Three years ago I had taxol, carboplatin, and herceptin 3 weeks on and one off. I was given a smaller dose then the once every three week schedule. This worked well to bring tumor markers down and keep active bone mets stable. I also had zometa monthly for bone mets.

I did dose dense (every 2 weeks) because my best friend was getting married on her birthday after "dating" the guy for 24 years!!! I had to get to Las Vegas in time to be the matron of honor....bald tho I was.....

I did dose dense AC & T.

I had dense dose AC followed by Taxol.

I had dose dense AC X 6. (entered a study)

I had regular dose (A/C every three weeks, then taxotere/herceptin weekly) and think dense probably would have been better. But I wanted to keep working, and it was almost 2 years ago, so I'm assuming the data favoring dense dose wasn't as clear. In any case, I'm doing fine. L

I began treatment in September 2005 with A/C every three weeks, Taxol and Herceptin weekly for 12 weeks, and then Herceptin every three weeks for a year total.

I did dose dense. It is considered the 'standard of care' at the cancer center where I received treatment.
