Experiences with

Paclitaxel

hi , is anyone taking part in the B69 trial ( Paclitaxel, Bevazicumab, pembrolizumab. if so , how are you doing ? Any bad side effects ? wishing you all well ❤️🙏

hi everyone, I’ve got grade 3 high grade serous ovarian cancer, I finished 6 rounds of Paclitaxel and carboplatin in Desember. I’ve just started 200mg Niraparib three weeks ago but seem to have developed swollen legs, has anyone had any experience of this?

Do you think my husband would be able to have his paclitaxel infusion at the hospital in Plymouth instead of the usual Newcastle hospital? If he gets a PICC line put in could he be given the paclitaxel solution to use when away? Just trying to continue having some sort of normality in our lives …

Seems paclitaxel has stopped working! My Oncologist has said my cancer is progressing. She is trying me on Cyclophosphamide, please let me know of any successes with this drug. Thank you. Xxx

Just had my first chemo of paclitaxel and carboplatin and wiped me out. Feeling very scared and isolated at the moment so any help or positive support would be so appreciated

Im currently doing carboplatin/paclitaxel 7 rounds 1x weekly and 37 daily radiation treatment. I have been fortunate to not have any side effects other than severe acid reflux and fatigue. This past week found out i have BRCA2, and Kras g12c and STK11 mutations.

I suffered an immediate severe reaction to chemo drug Paclitaxel and had to have an antidote administered in order to recover.The other2 drugs were ok(Carboplatin & Bevacizumab). I was told that some ladies have this reaction but when they take this drug a 2nd time they have no problem.

Combined chemo ( carboplatin and paclitaxel )once a week / radio every day mon to fri for 6 weeks followed , if I’ve got the appropriate markers with immunotherapy as follow on … they said  it was a brutal regime but they are aiming for a curative outcome ( this was tempered with the high % of recurrences

I thought I'd already heard them and let you all know but for those that don't know anything about it, it was a trial to see if giving carboplatin every three weeks and paclitaxel once a week for a total of eighteen weeks would be better than giving both every three weeks.

Has anyone made this switch after Paclitaxel, herceptin & perjeta ? How did you find side effects in comparison ? When switching treatment what hormone treatment did you take ? thank you for sharing your wisdom . It is sunflower season in Ontario Canada such a happy , strong flower. Luann

I underwent radical debulking in June followed by 6 cycles of carboplatin and paclitaxel chemotherapy which finished in November 2022. I had a PET scan in December and was told in January 2023 that I had disease progression and a new tumour in the pelvis.

This multi-center clinical trial, just published in Supportive Care and Cancer, studied reducing post-infusion cooling time after weekly paclitaxel to 20 minutes and demonstrated similar success rate of 75% compared to the usual 90-minute post infusion cooling.

I started paclitaxel and carboplatin and had 6 cycles every 3 weeks finishing on the 27th September. My CA125 remained at 10. I began Niraparib in the November and my CA125 was already starting to rise although I didn't know until just before christmas when I went to see my oncologist.

were recruited; 112 patients were randomly assigned to ribociclib (600 mg daily, three weeks on/one week off) plus an aromatase inhibitor – letrozole or anastrozole – and goserelin and 110 patients were assigned to a physicians’ choice combination chemotherapy regimen (docetaxel plus capecitabine, paclitaxel

Hi everyone. I began Taxol Friday. I was not at all apprehensive since I had taken the drug 11 years ago. I thought I knew what to expect. I left the clinic on a steroid high. No pain. Very little fatigue. I even had dinner guests. But the clock struck 10 p.m. and pain began building. By 3 a.m. it was

In addition, there's also the question of sequencing, with one oncologist strongly recommending going with the standard of care they know works, ie avastin + paclitaxel, and seeing where I am with the trial after the treatment in option 1.

I talked with my oncologist yesterday afternoon about my recent Ct & bone scans , these were the 1 year scans since my last Paclitaxel treatment .

so yesterday I went for my chemotherapy cycle 3a d they just gave me paclitaxel and I had to go back today for my Carboplatin desensitization. I had it broke down to 3x hour bags 1mg,10 mg, 50mg and then the 4th bag was over a 3 hour period of 560mg .

I was first diagnosed 2019, stage 1 fallopian tube cancer, BRCA's negative, had 6 cycles of carboplatin, paclitaxel on 2020. Reccurrence confirmed January 2022.
