My onc thought he would be able to petition for it, but who knows what the drug company will do. Yes, it would be a sad day for us stage 4s if we are shut out of this. Thanks for posting Chrisy.

I find the biggest thing to my overall being is just having hope. I sure am hoping for Pertuzumab to be abvaliable to us in a less toxic setting---using it with Herceptin and not Taxol. Some of us already have not so great quality of life and Taxol sure wouldn't help that!

A gal can only hope.
