New breakthrough in HR+ & hormone therapy for breast cancer

thank you for the link to this amazing article, I am 4 years post diagnosis for metastatic breast cancer and have done everything I can short of selling my house to access palbociclib, these new drugs are available here in Australia but under strict conditions, the main one being that if you have had chemotherapy which of course nearly all of us have then you dont meet the criteria, eventually one or maybe the other will become available on the PBS, but it will be years rather than months, BCNA have done a amazing job trying to try and move the process along its a process that takes time and that is unfortunately something that those of us with metastaic breast cancer dont always have a lot of, I will be showing this article to my oncologist on my next visit, he is very proactive and has tried several times to get me on a clinical trial of these new drugs, but we come against the same hurdle every time, I have previously had chemotherapy and I am not elagible, for the trials, its very downheartening, as I keep trying, by doing research and keep getting told sorry you do not fit the criteria, these drugs will eventually be available,  if not for me then at least for women later, its just a pity the government couldnt hurry things up a bit,
