Hi Julie,

Yes I am on the trial of Herceptin with RAD001. I began six weeks ago and have one PET scan at three weeks. It "appeared" that the RAD001 was strangling my liver tumors. I go every three weeks. As a matter of fact I will be there next Monday and Tuesday for a battery of tests...CT scans, etc. If the cocktail is working, the doc will keep me on it indefinately. They have one patient that has been taking it for quite a while...forgot how long. I think it is open ~ 40 patients at MD Anderson in Houston. The only problem I have is face hasbroken out in red bumps...looks like the measles. The doc had me on Ritilan for energy but after I broke out, took me off. We're pretty sure that must have been the problem as I just started taking Rit and since I have been off for a couple of days, my face has improved. Funny, the head nurse over this clinical trial has your name.
