PTEN and herceptin

I am thrilled to be getting Herceptin after chemo, but I can't help but feel a little bummed since I found out about PTEN and p13K. It's kind of like the dirty little secret. You'd think with all the hoopla surrounding herceptin lately there'd be more mention of it. I read some earlier posts regarding it and went to MD Anderson's site, but couldn't find a single clinical trial involving it.
If herceptin isn't going to work because of low levels of PTEN then a whole lot of us are taking it for nothing. Is anyone else feeling like me?
