Teach Trial

Hi,

NED, Dx 2002, treated with CAF x 6, then tamoxifen for 1 3/4 years, then Arimidex. Onc was willing to allow Herceptin but discussions with 3 oncs were not enthusiastic about benefit for me with Herceptin. Am scheduled currently to have a CT to further investigate after chest x-ray and side pain, but with all labs and markers coming back fine.

I'm considering participating in the TEACH trial that is coming up (which is the lapatinib vs placebo trial) for those who did not get Herceptin, and you all might want to think about it. It is a pill, which makes it easier to do.

P.S. lapatinib = Tykerb
