Jevtana and carboplatin combo..where to go after
My dad is now going through combo chemo (jevtana and
carboplatin
). Has anyone else experienced this and if so was it positive? Dad is having a lot of pain and just weak with it. We expected the weakness but not so much the pain.

Hope
(
Carboplatin
and Taxol combo) Ryan is doing fairly well. He has some achy joints and muscles. Unfortunately so much so that he has been taking a low dose pain med. tolerable once it kicks in and he can carry on life as normal. He feels fine otherwise which is great.

Treatment for mets to the liver - has anyone heard about this?
My Dr is going to use cabazitaxel and
carboplatin
to treat me. 3 rounds, 1 shot once every weeks - total 3 rounds - taking scans along the way.. Has anyone heard of this combo, used it? Dr tells me it more aggressive and less likely to have really bad side effects -- loss of hair, fatigue.

Carboplatin working well for liver
Just wanted to post an update on my dad's experience of
carboplatin
chemo in case it is useful to anyone in a similar position. In April scans showed that his cancer had moved into his liver, too small to do a biopsy at that stage but within a few weeks it had progressed very quickly.

Sticky eyes on chemo
Hi My husband has now had his 6th course of
Carboplatin
and Pemetrexed and is due to carry on with maintenance Pemetrexed. He started to get sticky eyes (not infected) from about course 3. It has got steadily worse, especially when he wakes in the morning.

Xtandi while on Chemo is working Well
Began my 3rd round of chemo 3 weeks ago with same combo of Docetaxel/
Carboplatin
as the prior 12 infusions. This time Med Onc suggested we continue Xtandi, which had been used on a rechallenge basis after the prior 2 rounds of chemo, but NEVER during chemo. Results were impressive.

Chemo done after 4 infusions
It's been a rough go on Docetaxel and
Carboplatin
. Ended up in the hospital twice after infusions, pneumonia and then a high fever/rash. Now new rash all over is terrible, so Dr. decided to give me a break after 4 infusions and call it quits for the time being.

Weekly Taxol
Hi I am on weekly Taxol after
Carboplatin
did not work. I have done 5 infusions but I have lost my appetite and this weekend I had the shakes which was unpleasant. Has anyone encountered this. I feel as though I am going backwards although my CA125 level has come down from over 1000 to 275.

Liver/lung metastasis and carboplatin
I see people have been on
carboplatin
and taxotere. Is there evidence it helps? And is the combo standard for liver/lung metastasis? Edited - I meant

Weekly Taxol and steroids
I remember when I first had chemo (
carboplatin
and taxetere), I had to take them. This time around they didn't give me any and just doubled the dose prior to administering the taxol. I feel like total crap and I don't remember feeling quite so bad right out of the shoot.

Feeling Alone
They're treating me with
carboplatin
and Caelyx (forgive if spelling wrong). The chemo is to keep me comfortable by shrinking the tumours as best as possible. I asked aged 51, if i would reach 60. Again very gently, i was told that it was unlikely.

It has returned
Tomorrow I will be returning to the hospital to drain my stomach and then it is back to chemo (
Carboplatin
and Cylex) and Avastin - just finished chemo at the end of July was not expecting it to return so quickly - quite depressing.

First chemo
We are being treated with pemetrexed and
Carboplatin
. We are wanting to know what to expect in the upcoming weeks. Our doctor will follow up in the next couple of days to ensure the treatment is working.

Query - re Diagnosis is 3C high grade serous carcinoma of fallopian tube what are the options for treatment?
Is Paclitaxel &
Carboplatin
her only option? A friend's mum works at the careoncologyclinic in London and she has suggested I also look into this as well but am unsure. Has anyone else looked into doing such things along side treatment too?

Xtandi while undergoing Docetaxel/Carboplatin chemo
On Thursday I will have my 3rd round of chemo with Docetaxel/
Carboplatin
combo. In each of the other 2 rounds, we used Xtandi as a rechallenge after 6 cycles of chemo.

NEPC
They are starting tx this week (
carboplatin
+ etoposide + tecentriq). Chemo will be 3 days in a row every 3 weeks with tecentriq (immunotherapy) added in. Has anyone else followed a similar tx plan? How was tx tolerated? How was the response? I am feeling very anxious.

Starting Radium 223 (Xofigo) next week
Having just finished a trial of
carboplatin
+ docetaxel, I'll be starting Xofigo next week as a bridge to a pembro+ trial early next year. My latest PSA is 940, with no visible soft tissue involvement. I have a single-strand CDK12 defect.

Hello ladeez.
Previously she had Paclitaxel and
carboplatin
then she had Caelyx and
carboplatin
. She is really struggling to know what to do so she wanted me to ask you all what treatments had you been on and how effective were they etc. Thank you in advance of your responses xxx

Double whammy chemo
John just started a
carboplatin
and cabazitaxel combo chemo Tuesday. Between the anti nausea med and the overall side effects the first three days after were pretty awful. He was so groggy and sleepy and fatigued. Any suggestions other than acupuncture which we will add soon?

Damned neutrophils
My onc took me off the Caelyx after the first 3 because I reacted badly so I am just on
carboplatin
. My main worry is that unless I can have my last chemo and then get my neutrophils up to at least 1.5 then I can't go on my holiday to Turkey on 23rd August.
