    The Breast Cancer Foundation is overjoyed Pharmac's funding a game-changing drug


    In the new year, Kiwis with HER2-positive advanced breast cancer will have access to 'wonder drug' Enhertu .

    It can boost the time the cancer's held at bay from 7 months to more than 2 years.

    Foundation CEO Ah-Leen Rayner says they're delighted and it's a truly remarkable drug- and they've rarely seen doctors so excited about the potential.
