I am on Avastin. I just finished Gemzar/Carbo/Avastin every three weeks and am now on Avastin every three weeks for 2 years.

TrishLey, must have missed your comment about being on Avastin for 2 years - I am just coming up to 12 months on drug, and CT scan due next week. But delighted to hear that someone can be left on it that long. It gives me hope - as I have recurrent OC - & Avastin is prolonging the period until I require Carbo/Taxol again.
