I have tnbc stage 4, mets to brain, lungs and bones. I will be having Eribulin, starting next week and was told I would stay on that for as long as it works. I read that it only works for 3/4 months, is this correct?
Hi, sorry no one has answered you so far. Like most treatments, it will be impossible to say as everyone reacts differently, and cancer is an unpredicatable disease. Who told you it only works for 3/4 months? Best to ask someone who has the most information - so try the "ask an expert" part of this forum. Hopefully, for you it works and stays working for as long as possible.
All the best
