Oral Cytoxan in conjunction w Avastin infusion

[Leniko]

I just wanted to report in. My CA 125 has been kept nicely low via Avastin infusions every six weeks. Over the last few months I noticed a trend of it slowly creeping up, Ie, a two point increase each time. I knew that this was odd and my oncologist agreed. I have started 50 mg oral cytotoxin once a day. My last CA 125 actually dropped a few time points. It’s the first time I’ve seen a decrease in quite a while. Just wanted to share that this has been working for me , in case you find yourself in the same Boat. Cheering for all of us warriors!!🙏❤️

Hi. Thanks for sharing this news. It’s good to know there’s another option out there when we need it! I hope it keeps lowering your ca125! Xx

I’m glad this medication duo is proving effective for you. Long may it continue. Would you mind advising as to side effects of the Cytoxan?

Thanks,

Sashay

not bad. Some nausea, but I take Ondansetron. Some fatigue, but nothing I can’t manage.

thanks. I found Ondansetron effective too.
