A pair of drugs, LAPGTINIB and TRASTUZUMAB can dramatically shrink and eliminate some breast cancers in just 11 days, UK Doctors have shown.
Prof. Judith Bliss, from the Institute of Cancer Research in London said the drugs widely known as HERCEPTIN was given to women with cancers and in less than two weeks of treatment, the cancer disappeared entirely in 11 percent of cases and in further 17 percent the tumours shrank to less than 5mm.
Current therapy for Breast Cancers is Surgery, followed by Chemotherapy and Herceptin. Following this discovery, women may no longer require Chemotherapy.
