Tykerb AND Herceptin
Hello,
In an earlier post, it was mentioned that Dr Pegram at UCLA recommended combining Tykerb and Herceptin.
I was wondering if anyone else has gotten input from their doctors regarding combinig Herceptin and Tykerb? or if anyone has any thoughts on the value of the combination?
Regards,
Amy
