What are some of the latest experimental drugs being used to treat breast cancer? I had 20 lymp nodes removed plus the lympectomy and the doc wants to do radiation and chemo, they say that it looks like they got it all, I do not want to do chemo so I am asking you if you know of any experimental cancer drugs being used?
Thank you,
