no measurable disease

georgiageorgia182 profile image

My mum had her end of frontline treatment scan results today - and she was told she has No measurable disease. Her CA125 is around 14. Any ideas what this means? Is it the same as NED? I’m a little worried xx

Hi , sounds really positive and best outcome achieved from frontline treatment. My oncologist used similar language. My understanding is that it the same as NED.
