    Great article and hope they get this drug up and working soon. 

    Just saddens me  - guess the triple neg's still just sit back, do nothing, wait and worry - and watch the clock tick.  Sure would like all these researchers (are you out there people - can you hear us???) to put a little time into at least getting us ONE freaking drug we can use before our cancer spreads - and that would possibly ward off our cancer.  Oh well, I can dream.

    I thought about that when I posted this....."What about the triple negs we have so many of on here"?  I agree more research needs to be done to get a drug out there that can stop the progression of those ladies too.  All the money that is put into cancer research.....you would think something could be discovered to end it all.  So much red tape and bureaucracy.

    I hope they are as close as they say they are. Often we read about "miracles" in the media 15 years become they become usable .. and no cures so far. My first dx was TN. My second was ES+/PR+. I need any help I can get.

    A cure would be wonderful. I hope it is the magic we've all been hoping for but remember that this cure is just in the very beginning of its journey.  It will take years and years and years of research, development, and testing before it becomes available to cancer patients.
