How to manage Xeloda?
When diagnosed I was given radiation for tumour activity in my sternum and a combination of Fulvestrant injections and
kisqali
medication. I had lesions on the liver which reduced in size but I still had enlarged lymph nodes in and near my armpits.

Metronomic Dosing of Xeloda (capecitabine) (cape) is working for now
My first line of treatment for bone only MBC was
Kisqali
and Letrozole for almost two years. I was NED for much of that time but then had mets to the peritoneal area. Started cape in Nov of 2020 at 4000 mg per day, 2 weeks on then a week off.

Mom treatment
I also wanted to ask, would her hair grow back while on
kisqali
? And I found out her toe nails has peeled off. Would they come back? What shall we do to help her?

I am on
Kisqali
, Fulvestrant injections and Denosab. My oncologist calls it the Maserati treatment and she is right. The bone tumours have reduced in size and spots on my liver have also shrunk. I still hope for NED one day but I am happy with my progress to date.

Kisqali and Fulvestrant
I am on a combination of
kisqali
(3 weeks on and one week off) and fulvestrant injections. Just about to start week 3 with some tiredness and mild diarrhoea as side effects. Worried that symptoms will get worse. Have others tried this combo and what side effects have others experienced?

No more NED for me!!!
Starting Xeloda (pill) or Gemcitabine (intravenously) I was on
Kisqali
for 22 rounds and was NED for 15 months. Very grateful for that. I will definitely get a second opinion maybe at MD Anderson. Any recommendations for Breast Cancer Specialist there?

Where to...
I have been off treatment for 6 weeks from hormonal treatment and 5 weeks off chemo as my last treatment did not work and bone mets progressed along with a small mass appearing under my sternum -
Kisqali
and Faslodex. I see my onc this week to find out what next line of treatment I am up for.

Where to next?
Since then I have been on hormone treatment moving to Xeloda Chemo for 18 months and 3 months ago I was moved on to
Kisqali
(Ribociclib) and Faslodex Injections. From a test done from my original surgery in 2016 I also know that my cancer invovles PIK3 pathway.

Cycle 19 of Kisqali and remain NED even with rising markers
It is higher than it was before I started
Kisqali
. My doc nor I can explain the increase. I still feel really well except for my week off when I get really tired. I do mild exercise such as Tai chi and have an antioxidant shake of greens and fruits about every day.

Update on treatment after rough chemo
Just starting 3rd month of
Kisqali
and Extemastane So far good , no side effects that I notice. The best part is I am not having any fatigue. I don't have the energy I used to but I am 74. I just had an empty apartment and painted three rooms plus blinds and windows.

Good News re: CDK4/6 Inhibitors & Overall Survival
The
Kisqali
combination resulted in 70.2% Overall Survival (OS) at 42 months vs. 46% OS in patients receiving hormone therapy without
Kisqali
. This corresponds to a 29% lower risk of death in patients receiving the
Kisqali
combination therapy.

NED with Kisqali
My doc perscribed
Kisqali
because she said it was less dangerous for blood clots than Ibrance and I had had a blood clot in each leg while in the rehab hospital. I also had 10 radiation treatments before I started the
Kisqali
. Today the findings on my scan reads: grossly unremarkable!!!

Bronchitis but no fever - okay to continue Ibrance?
Since Ibrance is not yet available here (
Kisqali
is), he is learning from my experiences. He did tell me to discontinue Ibrance when I had a 38 degree Celsius fever. Thanks all. Maria
