The b****** is back
They want me to try gemcitabine and
carboplatin
. I was surprised because I assumed that I was carbo resistant since I had recurred within 5 months. They think it's worth a shot. They have also suggested I take letrozole when I start to feel stronger.

Mom starting on radiation, getting port and then starting Chemo. Advice
Atezolizumab, Etoposide,
Carboplatin
They’ve also collected blood to send for Tempus ?? Study or trial? Will she lose her hair? Did you find anything helpful with side effects of any of these? Just trying to get more information. With gratitude!

Anyone dealing with Small Cell Carcinoma as their prostate cancer?
Tried Jevtana including one cycle with
Carboplatin
. While my PSA is dropping, my lymph nodes are continuing to increase in size and now I also have a bone met on one of my ribs.

CT Scan shows mass
Went thru 6 rounds Taxol/
Carboplatin
and was NED for 10 years. This April it came back. Went thru another 6 rounds, just had follow up CT Scan, it shows what might be a mass in my pelvis area. They were unable to needle biopsy due to my intestine being in the way.

What next after chemo?
I began chemo in June with docetaxil and
carboplatin
. PSA at start of chemo was 18. After 3 cycles, dropped to 10.6. After 5 cycles dropped to 7.5. Had cyberknife to 2 spinal Mets after third cycle that weren’t responding. Have now finished 6 rounds, thank God, and will see Dr.

And the results....
Taxol and
carboplatin
. What the hell is that? Is that really our last option? That’s garbage.. In the mean time; they want chemo; and for him to be screened for clinical trials. They said I could consult with a doctor about TIL. I am beside myself right now..

Second Surgery
Having had debulking surgery in June and 4/6 of
Carboplatin
and Taxol treatments I have now been told that I have 2 tumours on my sigmoid colon not responding and it has been recommended that this part of my bowel is cut out and rejoined.

In focus: managing the effects of chemotherapy - neuropathy
The chemotherapy drugs most likely to cause neuropathy are platinum-based drugs such as
carboplatin
and the taxane family of drugs, including paclitaxel (Taxol).

Cabazitaxel Plus Carboplatin for the Treatment of Men With Metastatic Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer
The combination of cabazitaxel and
carboplatin
was associated with longer median progression-free survival over cabazitaxel alone (7.3 months vs 4.5 months).

Metastatic prostate cancer
They have included syberknife, xytegia, xtandi,taxotere,xofigo,and now cabazitnxel(jevtana) with
carboplatin
. I don’t know if there is anything else that can be done. Is there any one else out there in the same situation and if so what are you doing?

Peritoneal Carcinoma
I did 6 rounds of
Carboplatin
/Taxol the first two times and currently on
Carboplatin
/Doxil for six rounds with 2 more to go. I am in desperate need of support. I am trying to stay strong, positive, and taking each day as it comes. I am trying so hard not to give up hope and keep the faith.

Would Carboplatin help with liver mets that are not neuroendocrine?
My dad has stage 4 prostate cancer with liver, lung and pelvic bone mets. Tried Jevtana recently and did not help at all and cancer worsened so it was stopped after 2 cycles. Started keytruda a couple weeks ago since prostate biopsy showed MSI-H. Recently got a liver biopsy that showed prostate adenocarcinoma

First days after Chemo
I had my first dose of
Carboplatin
on Thursday and so far not feeling too bad. I had
Carboplatin
/Taxol last time. Can I expect less side effects on Just
Carboplatin
?
