Hi All,
Thank you for your support. I have had Tykerb w/ Herceptin and that held me for 3 months. I have also had all of the hormonals. As for TDM1. At first I was not able to get in because I had not had Xeloda. Now that I am failing Xeloda I can not get in because the open trials require that you have NOT had Xeloda. Frustrating! That is one reason that I think that there should be a compassionate care mandate for stage IV entry to trials. I mean what could it hurt, really?
My doctor is checking to see if there are any current open TDM1 trials. I think that I still qualify for the Heat Shock Protein trial.
I am so lucky to have responded to date and to be able to maintain my life while living with cancer in treatment. I want to continue to do so until the cure.
Thanks again for your support. It means so much.
Love, Hope, Peace, Carolyn
