Re: In Praise of Perjeta
Hi Amy,
I also heard about the very positive outcome from the Cleopatra trial - in particular, my chemo nurse (I'm currently on Herceptin / Perjeta maintenance every 3 weeks) told me that they had very, very positive results for the Herceptin + Perjeta combo for women that get this as first line... Will ask her again on Wedensday mybe she can give me more details.
For the "D" - I have heard that that can be the case, and so sorry that it is for you - must be tough. I have been on it for over a year now, and I guess I'm just lucky, but wanted to let others know that while it's quite often the case, it does not always have to be - I do not have diarrhea on Perjeta so far!
