Is there anyone here who is taking Ibrance that has mets to the lung? That is where my breast cancer spread. I am on Xeloda and Aromasin now and the tumor markers are going up.

Hi Lee! My mets are in my left lung (pleural effusion) and I have been on Ibrance 125 mg and Faslodex shots for a year now with much success. Let me know if you have specific questions and I will answer. Lin

Ibrance has worked very well for my sister. The tumours have gone and the blood markers have dropped significantly

Hi Lee,My Mets are in my lungs and I am doing well since March 2017 with Ibrance and Letrozol. There are a number of drugs that work well with Mets to the lungs. Best wishes and blessings. Hannah
