Third recurrence, very worried.
I started
Caelyx
last Thursday, so sick for the last five days , beginning to pick up now . I'm wondering have many of you had
Caelyx
at this stage of the disease and if you have, had you a good response, remission??. I was first diagnosed in July 2018.

Olaparib hasn’t worked for me . Anyone had this happen and had success with another PARP?
Hi everyone, I’m back of Chemo for 3rd line, this time with Carbo and
Caelyx
. This is just a year after 1st recurrence, Chemo reduced cancer to nearly NED, 7 months of Olaparib and then CT scan showed new tumour on spleen. CA125 36.

Carbo/Caelyx and CA 125
Hi Ladies, My mom has been treated for her first recurrence with the Carbo/
Caelyx
combo since September 2023 and she so far has finished 4 rounds. Her CA 125 went down from 258 to 18 after the third round and the CT scan showed the cancer in her peritoneum shrank significantly.

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?

Stage 4 OC — Deposits on liver
Declared NED in August 2022 and started Evastin, but in January 2023 her bloods showed a slow but steady rise in her CA125, and after scans it was confirmed she’d had a small recurrence in peritoneum which was successfully treated with 6 rounds of Carbo/
Caelyx
.

Caelyx side effects and duration of treatment plus follow up with target therapy or immunotherapy.
If i go for the
Caelyx
, imagine 6/ 8 months treatment and being optimistic the chemo
caelyx
will work for me(and probably will because of my bcra1 mutation). I would like to go again to olaparib / avastin because clearly slows down the progression of disease.

Caelyx and hair loss
Doctors are suggesting to change treatment to
caelyx
and I have requested cold cap .They say cold cap is not used with
caelyx
because doesn't causes hair loss... I have read that can cause hair loss and thinning. Any advise or sharing of experience would be much appreciated. Big thank you 🌸

chemo break
my lovely mum just finished 6 rounds of carbo
caelyx
after recurrring 11 months from frontline. Her mid treatment scan showed a reduction in all tumours and post 6 a further reduction. She has a cold currently and ca125 is 113.

Be Careful Out There (UK)
I have been trying to walk every day while on chemo (carbo/
Caelyx
for 3rd recurrence). i was about 200 metres from home yesterday when I looked down and realised the pavement which had looked fine was actually icy… the next moment I was flat on my back.

options after Caelyx
She has obtained more steroids and has only done one round of
Caelyx
…her second round is on Tuesday (2 days away). Are there any alternatives to
Caelyx
? Anything else she can try? She feels defeated and like its the last hope. She also believes it just needs time to kick in.

Abraxane
I’m not bothered as I’ve been lucky (or unlucky some may like to call it) as was allergic to Taxol and
caelyx
so haven’t lost my hair on the last two chemo regimes, but just want to get looking at decent wigs if this is the case this time around.

What else is available?
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. I’ve just begun Paclitaxol, two weeks on, one week off and my onc says, if this doesn’t work there is nothing else.

caelyx in platinumResistance
Some thickening of the lining the consultant said the only option was
caelyx
but due to her age and possible brutal side effects and probability of not much gain he would not advise it. She has been handed straight to palliative care.

Gemcitabine and Avastin (no Carbo)
For my mom's second recurrence, the doctor suggested Gemcitabine and Avastin without Carbo, as she got kidney issues and potential liver mets with the last regimen with Carbo+
Caelyx
. Has anyone used Gem and Avastin without Carbo? Was it effective? Did you have any side effects?

How long was remission with caelyx?
I was wondering among those who received carbo/
caelyx
/doxil for first recurrence, if you achieved remission or stable disease, how long did it last?
