Hi everyone. Unfortunately my scans show progression w/ new bone lesions. Good news is my mets are still all in bones.
I now have to choose my next treatment by next week: Piqray + Faslodex or Xeloda.
Here are my thoughts:
Piqray cons: horrible, side effects. Could cause diabetes and terrible rash. Relatively new...my cancer center only has 3 patients on it. My onc has none.
Piqray pros - targets my mutation.
Xeloda pros - side effects not as bad as Piqray. More established drug. Onc sees good results and patients on it for years.
Xeloda cons - not as targeted as Piqray.
I would be grateful for your suggestions, recommendations, thoughts to help me choose.
