Re: Why Capecitabine and Exemestane?

Many thanks Paul, the Bolero-4 trial patients had Her2 Negative.

By the way, when you called Novatis, did you announce yourself as a pharmacist? I took many CME tests (and passed of course) specifically for bc, and can easily talk oncologist/researcher language, wonder if I should fake it to talk to these companies.

Thanks Paul.

I always tell them Im a pharmacist working with an online group.
You have a lot of knowledge and the pharmacist thing might make them more responsive.
I dont know if they can check the pharmacist thing by your name. Merck Sharpe
and Dome (Keytruda) asked me my address and they probably checked the State Pharmacy Board. Use your gut feelings. I always try to be honest but sometimes its relative. I cant say for sure but my guess is that the PAs and NPs who have prescribing powers dont know as much about the drugs as the pharmacists who dont. At least that has been my experience in retail, particularly with Tamoxifen. Calling the drug company saves a lot of time
