Genomic Sequencing and Targeted Treatment..?
I've had 6 sessions of Flourouracil (5FU) and
Irinotecan
but the main cancer has slightly enlarged (Secondary in the lungs is the same).... I need some hope and wonder where I go from here. There are other treatments such as Virotherapy and Rigvir but only abroad, I think.

Friend with rectal cancer. Did radiation/ostomy
They are now wanting him to do heavy hitting chemo for 6 months,
Irinotecan
, Fluorouracil and Calcium Leucovorin. I am in the Advanced Prostate Group and wondering what is the best place to get some information on this particular situation. Is it this group?

Writing for a friend. He was diagnosed with moderately differentiated adenocarcinoma in the prostecic bed that is close to the rectal tumor
They said they want to hit it hard with
Irinotecan
, Flurouracil and Calcium Leucovorin. I see this used for bladder cancer. Can anyone give me some direction what to research and make any sense of this. His wife died, a very good friend 3 years ago.

Blood while passing srool
Is it side effects of avastin or
irinotecan
. What should I do? I have informed my oncologist, going to see him today. But I am worried. It happened during avastin, now dropped avastin but what may be the reason? God knows.

irinotecan

Chemo treatment advice
Now the cancer has spread to my liver and lungs and the treatments I'm being offered is, first, a trial with Xeloda with Trastuzumab and if that doesn't help,
Irinotecan
. The onc assures me that neither of these treatments will affect my PN.
