Kim,
I was originally diagnosed 8/03 grade 3 DCIS, stage III, and 8/15 lymph nodes with cancer. I had neo-adjuvant treatment consisting of 3 Taxotere and 5 A/C dose dense, followed by left mastecomy & level 1 axillary node dissection, then 4 1/2 weeks of radiation, then 52 weeks of Herceptin which I completed in 5/05. Mets to lungs were diagnosed 12/05 and I received 6 cycles of Xeloda (3,000mg) before starting this trial. For most part my disease was stable on Xeloda but last scans revealed slight progression so my oncologist thought that it was best to move onto something new.
