T-DM1 Trials
I was able to contact the patient coordinator for a trial that is going on in my back door, and I am on the list for a potential spot.
Since I have not yet had Tykerb/Xeloda, I really don't qualify for this trial, but should I progress on the combo, I will be easily qualified.
She also mentioned to me a trial for the drug Array. Said it is new and in beginnig trials. Specifically for Her2 ladies also.
I am continuing with the Hercpetin and Taxol with once a month Zolada.
Do have one major problem this time. My face has a bright red rash across the forhead and down my nose to both sides of my cheeks. Nurse said it was from the Decadron. She also said they will reduce the amount since I am so sensitive. Who knew?
Anyone else experience this?
Take care all,
Emelie
