Tucatinib Is Active Against Brain Metastases in HER2+ Breast Cancer

They don't use Tucatanib alone. It is combined with Xeloda 1000mg per square meter twice a day.

I learned a quick formula for determining Body Surface Area in pharmacy school long ago. Multiply your height in inches times your weight in pounds and divide this number by 3,131. Then take the square root of this number snd you have a pretty good approximation of your body surface area. Some might find this formula useful as many drugs are given in mg /square meter.

BSA= body weight in pounds X height in inches divided by 3131, and take the square root of the this final number.

Hope this comes in handy
