Even though there are those few whose TOPO II resulted in benefit, I am very thankful that this information is becoming more available in behalf of so many, and particularly in behalf of those who are least likely in the first place to have any recurrence at all.
The lack of general awareness of this information from Slamon to me is a lot like the lack of acknowledgement about chemobrain... as well as like the failure to deal honestly with loss of libido (i.e., if you are not the patient and you don't have bc, and you want everybody to think in the most hopeful positive direction, other problems aren't important and are ignored....) There is such a huge tendency for "group thinking" in oncology, that a drug that was known to only provide 4% improvement in the first place was adopted as standard treatment for the majority. Truly tragic.
Thanks so much for posting this info.
