Hi @jane59, I moved your discussion to the Esophageal Cancer Support Group (https://connect.mayoclinic.org/group/esophageal-cancer/)

I did this so you can connect with other members living with HER2 postive esophageal cancer like @jmp1514 @nuggetofmine and who may have experience with targeted therapies like fam-trastuzumab deruxtecan (Enhertu) to share with you.

Has she started the new treatment yet? How is she doing?

Thank you for this. Yes she’s on her fourth round of Enhurtu and tolerating it well. On steroids for the first few days following which gives a boost in energy. Then she has a few days of depleted energy and is better again in the days leading up to the chemo again. She has had a feeding tube for over a year and also a stent. She’s able to eat some soft foods also.
