Does any one know anything about this new drug? My son just informed me of it, and it's use for tri/neg BC. I Googled it immediately and he's correct,  it's a new drug for the treatment of triple negative breast cancer.

    I had heard of some new drug about 6 months ago and asked my onc. He informed me that it was only used along with the chemo, which I had completed months before. I am wondering it this is the same thing, must be used after first being DX, or if it's a drug we can start a year or so after we have completed all our surgeries and chemos. Sure would be great if they have something that really can work for us with TNBC.
