Hi, is anyone else having this treatment 

  • Hi  

    I have metastatic tnbc and achieved remission through other drugs, but it’s my next line of treatment if/when I need it. So I am always interested in posts about this drug whenever I see them. I can’t be sure you will get a lot of responses as it’s only used for metastatic tnbc that isn’t suitable for either a PD-1 inhibitor or PARP inhibitor, or where the patient has stopped responding to these / can’t have more of these. A lot of people seem to refer to it by its brand name Trodelvy so it might be worth adding that to your post title. 

    Do keep us updated on how you get on.

    I have metastatic Triple Negative Breast Cancer, in remission

    1. I have breast cancer secondaries which have spread to my lungs, I have been on the chemotherapy since September and have been told that there is no end date once you start, though it may be different for you.
  • Yes - I think the idea is you keep going all the time it is working for you and you can tolerate it. I hope you are doing well on it.
