Is Taxol, Herceptin And Anastrazole Treatment Effective?

Posted on Mon, 19 Dec 2016

Question: I'm trying to decide between Taxol, Herceptin and Anastrazole treatment vs. TCh, Taxotere, Carboplatin, Herceptin. I'm not as concerned about side effects as I am with success. Please let me know what you think.

Brief Answer:
Hello dear. TCH followed by anastrazole

Detailed Answer:
Hello dear. I have gone through the details.

So at your age TCH is the best protocol followed by herceptin till 17 doses and anastrazole. Go for it. It has minimal risk.

Thanks and regards

I have one doctor recommending herceptin IV x 12 weeks with Taxol x 12 weeks
and then herceptin every 3 weeks x 40 weeks and anastrazole every 3 weeks x 40. What do you think of that regimen as opposed to the tch?
