Her 2 metastatic lung cancer

Hi , I have been diagnosed with Her 2 metastatic lung cancer. This cancer has not responded to platinum based chemotherapy drugs or immunotherapy and although the tumour was removed by surgery, the cancer has now spread to two sites in my spine and is classed as stage 4. There is no designated treatment in the UK for HER 2 lung cancer . In the USA and EU the condition is treated with a chemotherapy drug called Enhertu but this is not as yet licenced for use by the NHS. I am exploring whether this drug is available privately in the UK although the cost is likely to be prohibitive.

Does anyone have experience of Her 2 lung cancer or been able to access Enhertu?

  • Hi Treefield I hope you don’t mind but I was directed to your chat by Jolamine, and I was wondering if there was anything I could help you with as I’m on the drug Enhertu albeit I just started. Please feel free to ask any questions you like and I will endeavour to either answer or at least ask my oncologist for you. Kindest regards Hopesprings. X
