Just Diagnosed with Cancer? Chat with Experts

Lolo, if you're able to see an oncologist, please ask about Avastin for treating triple-negative breast cancer. You may be able to get into a clinical trial; or you may be able to get the drug at a reduced price from Genentch, the manufacturer. I think those would be your best bets. If not, please ask your oncologist if there's anything else you can do, drug-wise. I believe Avastin is the only treatment currently being offered, but I certainly could be wrong... And if you aren't able to access any drugs, take heart; many triple-negative women don't take drugs, and stay healthy. Good luck - PJH
