Hi.
My friend has been on Letrozole 2.5mg daily for breast cancer with mets. Letrozole has become less effective and the consultant wants her to go on Fulvestrant + Abemaciclib. She won't take the Fulvestrant injections and asked for Abemaciclib + Letrozole.
The consultant said due to funding she can only have Abemaciclib with the Fulvestrant injections.
Has anyone else been told this?
Many thanks.
Hi, I was just reading a post by LottieWat talking about similar treatment including abemaciclib and letrozole so you might want to check this out. Best wishes
