emotions during chemo
hi all, I am on the paclitaxel
Carboplatin
regimen for stage 2A clear cell ovarian, after optimal surgery. I am physically tolerating the chemo well after 2 sessions, though I feel so irritable, angry, intolerant especially during the few days after the chemo.

Carboplatin shortage
Has anyone else on here been struggling to find
carboplatin
for their treatment? This is the only drug left that might keep the cancer at bay.

Feasibility of someone from out of USA joining a clinical trial in USA?
His six doses of Chemotherapy (
carboplatin
+ etoposide) that ended seven weeks earlier. My understanding is that chemotherapy is the established regimen for High Grade NE Cancer/SCC. Are there significant benefits of joining clinical trials after chemotherapy for SCC?

Not the odd one out any more
Half of the patients will receive six cycles of the same standard dose of a chemotherapy called
carboplatin
, while the other half will receive an adaptive therapy regimen of
carboplatin
.

3C Chemo Combo
She’s having a combination of
Carboplatin
, Paclitaxel and Avastin as they have assessed that she’s relatively fit. I was wondering if anyone’s had this combination? From what I’ve read it looks intense with quite brutal side effects.

How long for hair (lashes/brows) to grow after nab Paclitaxel (Abraxane)?
It's now 4 weeks from my 6th and last chemo (
carboplatin
and nab paclitaxel). I used the cold cap but it didn't exactly work on the crown of my head. I now have "some" hair on the scalp, honestly almost enough for me not to be embarrassed to go out like this.

Referral from Wales to England - any experience?
Just had CT scan following 3rd cycle of
carboplatin
/paclitaxol and 2nd of Avastin. CA125 has reduced from 374 pre-chemo to 26 post 2nd cycle which I'm hoping is a positive sign!

Order of treatment?
Having waited for 6 weeks to have a biopsy and get the results for neuroendocrine PC (he didn’t have it) his oncologist has said he can either have another chemo (Cabazitaxel or
Carboplatin
) or Radium 223.

Coping with chemo side effects
I had my 1st chemo 2 Jan (
carboplatin
paclitaxel and bevacizumab) 8 hour infusion. I didn't know how I would react and although I had many symptoms, it was manageable.

Cabazitaxel plus carboplatin
Orme, have suggested chemo with cabazitaxel combined with
carboplatin
as a possible next step. This would probably be done in Cyprus, where I live. I'd welcome thoughts on side effects and how durable the treatment is likely to be.

Moving on...to olaparib
I recently updated to ask about chemo options, mainly cabazitaxel with or without
carboplatin
, or a second round of docetaxel, this time with
carboplatin
. I had been discussing these with my Mayo doctors, Kwon and Orme. Then earlier this week, Dr.

Update on chemo
Saw my consultant today over the start of chemo , he said as mine was at an early stage I am only having
Carboplatin
for an hour every session and as he told me in his words it’s “mopping up “ anything they didn’t see during my operation so fingers crossed 🤞 x

Confused clear cell concerns
So went for chemo no.4 today, as no. 3 had made me ill with terrible side effects they decided to stop the paclitaxel and just do the
carboplatin
. White blood cells were low but still ok to go for the carboplatin.My CA125 is now down to 10.
