I am reading this book (released Sept/2019, so very recent information) from a health journalist Kate Pickard who had HER2, stage 3 a few years ago. The book is not just about her story, but the history of breast cancer reasearch and treatments: Radical : The Science, Culture and History of Breast Cancer in America. Despite the fact that is related to the USA, there are very interesting stories and analysis that may as well be applied to Australia. She discusses treatments trends/evolution along more than 100 years. She does not have metastatic bc, but she was given Herceptin + Perjeta. I read the combination of the two is the best way to treat HER2. I am seeing my oncologist in January and will ask her more about it.
