Tarceva progression - 1270198

I am wondering what the latest update is on tarceva progression. I have been on tarceva for 20 months 150 mg and going well. I get the impression there are so many patients who have successfully taken tarceva for many years rather then months. Is this correct? I am grateful for tarceva but wondered if someone has a more accurate result of tarceva free progression. Thank you kind regards Ellie.

Hi Ellie,

Congratulations on your great response to Tarceva. Actually at 20 months you are beyond the typical progression-free survival, which is more like a year. Since you're well past that mark, you may be one of the fortunate minority who remain progression-free for years, and I very much hope that is the case.
