Weekly versus 3 week Herceptin dose studies
Hello:
Kim here - Stage III bc'er who has finally completed the chemo and rads this June. Now, I would really like to go on the 3 week dose of herceptin. I've been doing weekly herceptins as onc didn't want to do 3 week dose with rads. My echo is fine - however, nurse says I'll need to show onc studies that show same results with 3 week dose in order to go off of my weekly schedule.
Does anyone know about this type of study? I know that they recently came out with a study showing that herceptin with radiation did not cause any more probs to the heart.
At any rate, any help would be GREATLY appreciated.
much thanks!
Kim
