Battling ovarian cancer (recurrance)
After the 1st hysterectomy and debulking, followed by a round of chemo (carboplatin and
paclitaxel
), I was in remission for 11 months. A CT and PET scan then showed some nodules.

Vistusertib and taxol
There’s an article in the mail today saying that the above drug in combination with
paclitaxel
has shown promise in slowing down the growth of ovarian cancer. Prof Banerji said what they saw in trials was exciting. Has anyone been part of/or aware of this trial?

Low grade stage 3c omental cake
She had 3 cycles of neoadjuvant Carboplatin-
paclitaxel
-bevacizumab and after that the CT scan showed a mild response (did not expected more as she is low grade...) and also a reduction of CA-125 levels to 78.

Vitamin E - Tocotrienols
In addition, increasing lines of evidence has shown that tocotrienols can sensitize cancer cells to chemotherapeutic agents such as celecoxib, doxorubicin, erlotinib, gefitinib, gemcitabine,
paclitaxel
, statin etc.

Polyphenols - Inflammation.
CA-phenyl ester (CAPE) enhances anti-proliferative and cytotoxic effects of docetaxel (DOC) and
paclitaxel
(PTX) in PCa cells attributed to CAPE augmentation of DOC and PTX proapoptotic effects in addition to CAPE-induced alterations in estrogen receptors (ER)-α and ER-β abundance [23,24].
