Clear Cell Progression
My taxol/carboplatin &
Avastin
chemotherapy treatment was discontinued after 3 infusions, as CT scan showed progression of tumors, and invasion into my liver. The doctors at UCSF have not much to offer as no targetable gene mutations were identified.

Post 2nd line chemo options
She has her oncologist meeting later today and she is particularly worried that, as she has had
Avastin
before, that there will be nothing they can do now to try and keep the cancer at bay.

PV and AMD?
I've recently been diagnosed with age-related macular degeneration and have been treated with intravitreous
avastin
. I've seen some papers suggesting that AMD is more common for people with MPNs. Has anyone else had this experience? Steve, ,age 79

pleural effusion
hi all you very supportive ladies . 4 years since my diagnosis with stage 3 ovarian cancer I have had all the chemo combinations available plus
Avastin
and PARP inhibitors . I was then in a clinical trial for a year which had a small effect and finished in March.

Not sure how to help/plan
She's now on
avastin
. Nothing in her liver but nodules in her lungs that shrunk a little with chemo. As far as I understand that's the only cancer in her at the moment. It's not BRCA related.

GemCarbo and picc line advice please!
I've also asked for a picc line this time - I couldn't have one last time as I was also having
avastin
so don't know what to expect at all! Any advice gratefully received π Xx

Scan shows spreading despite chemo but surgery going ahead..confused π€
I have just had my 3rd round of chemo (carbo & Taxol) but my
Avastin
was stopped this round in preparation for surgery. These results are mixed & now I feel more uncertain about things. Anyone experienced anything similar along the way?

Carbo/caelyx 2nd line
Hi all, I am about to start my 2nd line of chemo, carbo/caelyx, having done carbo/taxol/
avastin
first time round. I was hoping to just get to immunotherapy tbh but it looks like you need to do at least 2 series of chemo first to be eligible... so, anyone else had a similar treatment plan?

Wet AMD and Dry AMD
I was just diagnosed 3 weeks ago and got my first shot of
Avastin
. Seems to have helped a little bit. Second shot coming up in 10 days. Second question. I have had dry eyes for the past couple of years but ever since I got the shot my eyes are even more dry than usual.

Hair, brows and eyelashes!
But in mid Feb I had to start Lynparza and
Avastin
(Bev). About two weeks ago I noticed my lashes are falling out waaaay faster than they should normally even though Iβm using a topical (Grand Lash) that is supposed to help them grow. This is so discouraging.
