Re: Sabcs 2012

Thank you for reporting back - very interesting! I had a very large area of DCIS and my initial assays on the tumor and lymph tissue pointed to P53 mutation in addition to the Her2 positivity. The P53 mutation was observed to a greater degree I the lymph tissue. Did he have any treatment suggestions based on this theory of a double hit?
I will have to download those abstracts!
