Hi Eric,

I know a lady who had this done in Isarel about 9 years ago. She was early stage, node postive and ER/PR - and Her2 -. She did not have mets till seven years later and to the bones which are NED for the past 1.5 years. I don't know anything about the type (drugs) she got, but seven years of relapse free survival seems pretty good to me. My mom's onc, world renowned, thinks that this is not a way to go anymore because of the toxicity killing most patients prior to disease doing so. Hope that helps.
