Got approval for Tecentriq for TNBC mets to bones

dlittkemann

Anyone else heard of this? My oncologist was shocked today at change between two scans month apart. One small spot turned into full spine and pelvis. He seemed confused on how spread could happen that fast which scares me even more. One scan was at local smaller hosp and other was at huge research hosp.

So if anyone else has been on this immunotherapy drug I'd love to hear positive stories. Lord knows I need them. Thanks all x

one treatment done. Feeling ok. Is anyone else on the combo for bone mets?? Curious if you lost all hair? I feel too good but my first time around was dense dose act and taxol.

i am fighting to get this, but two separate biopsies of my liver tumor show triple negative and one weak HER2+, So they still class me as her2+ and won't give me the tecentriq.On doxil as my last try.

I’m so sorry to hear that! I would assume triple negative would give you the right to be on it! Praying you get approved.

what do you mean Doxil as last try? Do they have to try doxil before approving the Tecentriq?
