Nancy visited the Doctor, and no decision was made for the next medicine. Nancy has two options to choose from: 1) to take Faslodex, a monthly shot or 2) join a medical trial for a new medicine called Indibulin. Dr Anthony hs 3 other patients in this trial. This med will not be available on the open market until approvals are done, which could be 6-8 years. Dr Anthony feels both are good options. Nancy is reviewing the 13 page document for being a participant in the trial. Timing is different for each. If she chooses 1) then it starts next Monday. If she chooses the trial, the first dosage is Feb 24th.
Nancy is very open to comments if anyone has any trial experience. Thanks for the support, we will let you know soon what she decides.
We also reviewed the scans, and Nancy has no new cancer. The cancer she has does show increased activity. That is why we are changing meds.
