Update on Me/New trial
Since my progression from TDM-1 in Dec(Sternum, soft tissue met in chest), I have been on Herceptin/Tykerb/Xeloda. In April I had rads to the chest and the latest scans show that it is healing. I still have one small spot in the liver that shows up on a ct but not pet/ct. It is not big enough to biopsy.
I have applied for a new trial ( NCT01148849, CP-MGAH22-01, Safety Study of MGAH22 in HER2-positive Carcinomas) and if all goes well I will start the last week in July. This drug is supposed to be the next generation Herceptin.
I got 2 years out of TDM-1 and that has kept me around to try something new. You Ladies (and Gents) have been such a blessing to me that I want to make sure I can return the favor.
Praying for us All
Kim
