I am on eighteen weeks of low dose Paxlitaxel plus three weekly fusions of Herceptin and Perjeta and once a month injections of Denosumab. I am recently diagnosed with Stage 4 breast cancer to liver and bones. I know that as I am triple positive I will be treated according to the CLEOPATRA guidelines but wondered what happens if chemo does not work? I've read that doctors do not exhaust chemotherapy options but give up if first line fails. I don't see how hormone therapy alone would keep me alive.
Does anybody have experience of this?
Thank you.
