Breast cancer progression slowed by Xeloda and Tykerb combination
A report notes a delay in breast cancer growth when patients receive a regimen including the chemotherapy drug Xeloda and the targeted therapy Tykerb. The finding highlights potential benefits of combined treatment for tumor progression.
Tykerb Shows Promise In Advanced Breast Cancer Study
An international study finds Tykerb plus Xeloda delays tumor growth longer than Xeloda alone in women with Herceptin-resistant advanced breast cancer. Average non progression is about 8.5 months with Tykerb combo versus 4.5 months with Xeloda, leading to expanded access and planned regulatory submissions.
