I'm not very good at understanding the technical abstracts. Is this the posting from the New England journal of Medicine put out today? The news article talks about adjuvant chemo, done right after chemo treaments. Are taxanes used in adjuvant treatment? Isn't that the taxols, taxoteres, that line of drugs or am I confused? I would like to find the report directly from the New England journal of medicine released today but I haven't been sucessful. ..sherryg683
