I can't recommend any articles but I've had two different breast cancers. For the first one about 14 years ago, they didn't do tests for her2. I took tamox for five years. It obviously didn't work because I got a bilateral cancer on the other side, not a recurrence. The first cancer was premen, the second postmen. I have been on herceptin for a year and am now taking femara. Both tumors were estrogen positive. Hope this helps a little. The new drugs like femara are supposedly much better drugs than tamoxifen. I don't think there's any problem taking any of the drugs with herceptin as it's a totally different mode of action.
