how do you contact dr slamon?

Hi,
I have a friend with HER2 breast cancer and she has had difficulty with various chemos not doing the job so since we're both here in France, I thought her oncologist, who speaks perfect English, should contact Dr. Slamon or anyone else you think is a really good expert. She's HER2+++ very positive and ER- PR-
chemo successfully killed it off in her lymphs under the arm but not in them in the center chest between the lung and heart.
Any names of brillant people to consult would be appreciated.
when I get the list of chemos she's been on, I'll post that for ideas.
thanks sarah

You might get him to consult Martine Piccart who was the head of the HERA trial (all herceptin trials outside No. America) She is in Belgium and is French and English speaking. I believe she is at the Institute Jules Bordet, but just google her.

Hope this helps!

Many thanks for this information. I have passed it along. My friend now will be entering a trial for Tyberb which is very exciting. However I now have found out that she has IBC on top of HER2, she's ER- & PR-. Now I'd like to find out who's the expert on IBC.
thanks
