The plan was, the patient had previously progressed on tamoxifen. She did not tolerate AROMASIN, so she was put on ARIMIDEX. PET scan in January 2017 showed disease progression, so we switched her to IBRANCE plus fulvestrant, which she was tolerating. She has had a good response on Imaging as well. Continue with IBRANCE and fulvestrant. Continue IV iron due to significant iron deficiency secondary to Crohn's. Continue XGEVA for bone mets.
