Stage lV brca- First recurrence
I am waiting for an appointment for my first port and will start carbo/
Doxil
after. Any suggestion on how to prepare for
Doxil
? I really hope is not as bad as Taxol. Since I was diagnosed I kept my spirits high but this time Is getting to me. I can’t get up from the couch.

Xeloda failed after only 2 cycles
It looks like I'm on to
Doxil
after a liver biopsy. But I am only 52, with 4 kids from 12 to 22. I am not ready to go, but I have started planning. I asked the doctor to give me a prognosis at this point. He said 2 years if
Doxil
doesn't work.

Mom's Stage IV OC - Recurrence - may seek clinical trials. Thanks for any input. :)
. :) Then in April 2020, her CA125 started to climb so she started back on chemo (
Doxil
/Avastin) which failed, then switched Taxol/Avastin which was working for a while but has recently lost its efficacy.

Here we go again
My 2nd line was on
Doxil
. Did okay on it, saw good regression, but at 7 month marker we started to see new growth. The
Doxil
also gave me horrible mouth sores. Soooo painful. Was pretty nauseous for 3 to 5 days post-infusions too.

Starting Doxil Soon. New to community.
Oncologist has advised cancellation of Avastin and starting
Doxil
. I have multiple side effects with Avastin that make “normal” activities increasingly difficult. I’m concerned about new drug, as I’m familiar with the “devil I know”. I’d like to hear from anyone who has been on
Doxil
.

Do more chemo?
Doxil
has been working for me, beating back the cancer and my CA 125 levels successfully. Although I tolerate it well, the fatigue, even after almost a year off of
Doxil
, is almost debilitating. Have inherited anemia so my hemoglobin is below 8 (could be the cause of my fatigue).

Zejula question
I finished Carbo/
Doxil
with only a partial response; so now I am starting Zejula. Has anyone else had this happen? How long does the nausea last with Zejula? Thanks for any thoughts.

First recurrence
Carbo and
Doxil
every three weeks. Wondering if any that had this combo will share experience with me. I live alone and with covid situation - I’m not sure about hiring help if needed. How were the side effects for you? Could you have done it on your own? Thank you!

Back to Radiation!!
So hoping to start next week- I just did 3 months of Abraxane and 2 months of
Doxil
with zero success. He is looking into a few more chemo options-sacituzumab govitecan soon to be approved by FDA. Other options as well. Can you share any tricks for radiation-it’s been 5 years since I went thru it.

Update on my status
Having just finished six months of carbo caelyx aka
doxil
, I had a scan last week and am going to start Olaparib next Sunday. The scan showed that my main tumor which started out at about 3.4 x 2.2 cm is now just under 1 cm all around.

Endometrial Cancer- 8 months remission-after 4 years trying
I had an 8 month remission after the first round of chemo (carbo-taxol) then went on carbo gemzar (with a short try at
doxil
). With the carbo gemzar I was moslty NED while on chemo, but my doc said we should do it for a whole year. So I did. Also Avastin. I am still on Avastin.

Should I get a port?
I have had a reoccurrence and am receiving Carbo/
doxil
once a month and a monthly blood draw still without a port. Inserting the IV is becoming more difficult and painful. I have requested a port and my doctor has agreed if I want it.

Melphalan
I was to have 6 rounds of Carboplatin/
Doxil
but after 5th round my CA125 shot up. I have just been put on Melphalan 2mg. 4 tablets for the first 5 days of the month followed by bloodwork after 30 days. Is there anyone who can give me any feedback or your experience with this drug.
