Hi SaraD--

I'm glad you posted. Wondering if you've reviewed the study from Finland and the study recently posted here on Stage III women who received Herceptin neoadjuvent and did well without having Herceptin for a full year. I know these are small studies and shouldn't be taken as gospel. Wondering how they're interpreted by someone like yourself who actually has the training to make sense of them.

Thanks for any knowledge you can share with us.
