Crummy news at MD Anderson
I’m low grade primary Peritoneal 3C. Been coasting on Letrozole for 22 months (a long run) but now cancer is progressing rapidly. Doxil (different name in UK) is next for me. Wasn’t expecting this at all. Kind of in shock and feel this is a game changer. I’ll search for posts on this drug. Can anyone

Doxil and Avastin
Hey guys I just wanted to know what to expect from this drug combination I had my first round and felt pretty good had very few side effects. Should I expect this through out my whole treatment or is it cumulative? Please let me know your experiences with this drug. I’m clear cell stage 2c grade
