Small Tumour & Herceptin Studies

[dlamanuzzi]

Hi all;

My wife, 44 years old, has recently completed her chemo 4 doses of AC. She is ER+, PR + and Her2Neu 3+. In the beginning her onclogists did not recommend Herceptin, however changed his mind after having the slides reviewed. He feels her tumour is just over 1 cm and left the decision for us to make. We are not sure if the risk outweight the benefits.

Are there any studies that show the benefits of using Herceptin on small tumours?

All comments are appreciated

Thank You Dominic
