To all you readers/researchers out there....  A co-worker's wife was just diagnosed with Stage 1 with micromets in one node.  1.5 cm, highly er+ pr+, her2-.  Grade 3 with LVI.  She is 44 years old.  Since grade 3 is an aggressive cancer and she is premenopausal, she will definitely be getting chemo.

My question is - what are the latest studies saying regarding chemo regimens - I think I remember that lately they are moving away from adriamyacin and other anthracylinces and going more towards TC? (taxane + cytoxin).  Can somebody provide the names or reference of the latest studies.

Thanks so much.
