Recurrence symptoms
I do get CA125 tests regularly every 3 weeks with the
Avastin
I'm still on, but the onc has asked me to just "watch for symptoms" to see whether or not another CT is necessary. Argh, this is crazy-making :( I'd be very grateful to hear everyone else's experiences. Thank you!

parp for hrd positive?
To recap - my mom was diagnosed in 2018 - debunking, chemo - second lot of chemo in 2021 and
avastin
up until 2022 - now she just had a successful surgery and having her third lot of chemo. I really want her to get a parp the doctor said she doest’t qualify.

Bowel obstruction with HGOC stage 4a inoperable
It’s not bowel perforation from
Avastin
and so far the
Avastin
is keeping the cancer stable. Has anyone had this problem? Is it possible to still get a few more years after this? Should I be asking for any surgery to unblock it? Xx

Good news on recurrence
Oncologist said no to Glorioso trial, my samples from 2018 too old, a bit like me 🤣 Having a few more
Avastin
cycles , without a trial I will start hormone therapy for maintenance in October, which is the nhs pathway.

Recurrence while on Avastin?
Can you recur while on the maintenance of
Avastin
? My cancer markers have continued to trek upwards lately. On
7/21/23
my CA125 went from
30 to 37.
And my recent CA125 on
8/11/23
went to
43
. All while I was on
Avastin
Treatment!

I have questions about Tamoxifen, aka Hormonal Therapy
I've been doing
Avastin
since January 2022. Currently my CA-125 is a 43, elevated above the 35 Cancer marker. But my oncologist is monitoring me very closely with Ct-Scans every 3 months. I have had 3 Ct-Scans thus far, & all show no signs of cancer.

Recap and update
I have consented to
Avastin
and Olaparib. Onc said I could ask for second opinion from Christina Fitapalou but she said surgery would be radical with no guarantees she will get it all.

3rd recurrence
But now her
avastin
and olaparib options are done. What next now ?? And one more thing I wanted to mention that she has responded to chemo quite well everytime. Do we have any immunotherapy left now ? I'm little panicking right now. Need your advice.

First recurrence
My doctor wants 4 two weekly chemo treatments with Doxil,
Avastin
and Carbo I am also wondering how many of you sought a second opinion and if that was helpful.

Advice please
She recovered well and continued with
Avastin
infusions every 3 weeks until May this year when her CA125 started to gradually rise. Her CT scan at this time showed NED and they recommended stopping the
Avastin
.

Abdominal distension
Had 4 rounds carbo/plaxi/
avastin
, followed by debulking. Completed further 2 rounds of chemo. Cancer recurred within 6 months. So I was denied further surgery. I am BRACA-1.
Avastin
and PARP wasn't effective. Completed carbo/gem in July and subsequent PET scan was NED.

Trial with Niraparib and Avastin
I am now considering a drug trial using Niraparib and
Avastin
combo. I believe it is intended for people who have been taking Niraparib with progression of disease. Would love to hear from anyone. Thank you

What else is available?
A year on
Avastin
and Olaparib with progression. Then my onc tried Carboplatin and then Caelyx neither of which worked and the size of my tumour is what it was at the start of treatment. I’ve never had surgery.

mesenteric tumour?
I have had 4 four rounds of carbo/taxol , three of them with
Avastin
. They omitted the
Avastin
for the 4th round in case they were able to offer interval debulking. I had another scan after the third round and had the results a few days ago. I had many questions ready anticipating any outcome.

DDS treatment.
I’m to continue with the carbo/taxol/
Avastin
. when my clinic notes arrived on Friday , it repeated what I’d been told but in addition said I would be reassessed for DDS? Not heard that before, but googled it. I found “Drug delivery system”. Does anyone have any knowledge of this?
