These are two areas that show a lot of promise, and if you have just been diagnosed with Triple Negative, look into them right away. My dear friend from Freshman year at Harvard, Andy Thomas, is now the medical director at Ohio State's University Hospital. Dr. Charlie Shapiro is their top breast expert and they are doing some cutting edge research into Triple Negative. Check it out.

My War Against Triple Negative Breast Cancer
Welcome
On September 28, 2009 I was diagnosed with stage 3 Triple Negative breast cancer. They found a 9 cm tumor and another smaller one while I was nursing my son. I started 17 rounds of chemo: ACT plus carboplatin. Had a double mastectomy on April 6, 2010 followed by 6.5 weeks of radiation. At the time of my surgery I had had a complete pathologic response to the chemo - no evidence of disease. Here's what I learned along the way:
