Discussed with onc..trials on chemo/herceptin
Okay, met with my onc. at the center yesterday.
I had a long discussion with him regarding herceptin treatment without chemo and are they planning any trials.
First he explained that Dennis Slamon already did those studies and that hercpetin alone only had a 9% - 12% effective value versus when it is combined with taxol,
or other chemo treatments.
