Question about Chemo/target therapy
As you all know, I'm still fairly new at this. '07 was the year I learned I had bc. In that year Tykerb and Ixempra was approved and Avastin was on the horizion. This year I haven't seen much although I know there are new drugs in the works. Was '07 just a good year for new treatments? I guess, I was hoping that new drugs came out all the time.
Thanks,
Tonya
