Hello i got diagnosed with breast cancer in october 2024. I have done 6 x tchp ,with phesgo an additional 3 phesgo and had a double mastectomy and diep reconstruction. My pathology came back as what my oncologist says was an almost complete response? So im on herceptin as my lymph nodes were clear, i thought that if there was anything left i would be doing kaycyla? Has anyone had similar in the uk ?
Hi,
I also had an almost complete response, the tumour (grade 2) shrinking from 6cm to 0.9 cm of grade 1 cells left. I was really disappointed, having being told from MRI that it was a complete pathological response. This meant Kadcyla rather than herceptin for adjuvant treatment. It was daunting but manageable. Maybe check with your oncologist. Maybe your remaining tumour was much smaller? Don’t know if that would make a difference?
