Hi Denise, my mom has high-grade endometrioid endometrial cancer, has undergone one round of carboplatin/taxol chemo, and biopsy results recently showed HER2 positivity. It looks like her oncologist may add it to her treatment between her second and third rounds of chemo (that’s when she has an appointment scheduled to check on her heart, which I know needs to be looked at before she can start Herceptin). Would you mind sharing at what point Herceptin was added to your treatment? I’m just trying to find more info. It seems potentially promising, and my mom’s cancer is especially aggressive so I am hoping for any and all options for her. Thank you.

Thank you for sharing. I hope you are maintaining.
I was diagnosed with stage 3C high grade papillary serous endometrial cancer two years ago. Surgery, chemo with Herceptin and radiation followed by continued Herceptin only infusions for the last two years. Usually Herceptin stops after one year but I’d read it can help delay the return so I asked my Drs if I could stay on it. They were doubtful insurance would approve it but it was approved and I just received approval for a third year. Now my Dr is uncomfortable continuing it without more scientific support. Crazy.
Can I please ask what type and stage cancer you have and who your Dr is? Desperately Loki g for evidence based data or Drs in the lead on this.
Thank you
