I suspected it may be a trial of that nature. Sorry I haven't heard anything though. :hugs:

He said he would tell me more when I finished radiation...like to be cryptic...
I read some recent research that said that giving people with triple neg hormones made the receptors that are currently non receptive for herceptin receptive, and hence herceptin could be used if necessary...

all I have been able to find is this snippet:
Researchers will soon launch a trial of a hormone therapy not thought to be effective in triple negative patients because the cancers have no hormone receptors. Researchers at Maryland have been working to “reprogram” the cancer to make the treatment more effective.

I'll post more as soon as I find out anything, but if anyone hears anything please post!

Hi Denise,
You really need to ask your Onc to explain why. Remind him that you are triple neg. :hugs:

Triple negative being prescribed hormones

Postby denise_s » Sun Oct 17, 2010 11:35 pm

Hi All
I am triple negative and have finished chemo (yippee), my oncologist has said that he will talk to me about starting hormones after I finish radiation. I always thought one of the benefits of triple negative was no hormones?? Can anyone throw any light on this?
Thanks
Denise
