Hello All : I previously reported on my initial splendid results with Zelboraf therapy. I am now experiencing a recurrence of tumor growth in my seventh month on this drug and hoping to hear about what the next steps in my path might be. I visit w / my oncologist later this week and am scheduled for neck, chest & abdomen scans.
Hello All : I previously reported on my initial splendid results with Zelboraf therapy. I am now experiencing a recurrence of tumor growth in my seventh month on this drug and hoping to hear about what the next steps in my path might be. I visit w / my oncologist later this week and am scheduled for neck, chest & abdomen scans. Was heartened to read a post by PhoenixJ and the positive results she is receiving in her treatment with Ipi – is there a chance Phoenix you might reveal the calculus as to why you were taking Zelboraf for two months then switched to Ipi?
Also I'm thinking my oncologist spoke before about my not being able to segue right into a Zelboraf / MEK trial because of my usage of Zelboraf?
And remembering that maybe my facility Seattle Cancer Care Alliance does not have a relationship w/ that drug at this time?
and that my wife looked it up & UCLA does??
Anyway I'm trying to amp up for this visit and so appreciate all the information shared on this site. Please come forward with any thoughts or experiences you have on this subject
Cheers and all the best to you, john
