Dx 6/07 stage IV with metases to lliver & abdomen. Surgery then 6 rounds Taxol/ Carboplatin.
Recurred 6-7 mos later. 2 mos in study maybe had antiangiogenesis drug.
2nd surgery 12/08. 3 more taxol/Cplatin...bad Rxn, so now finishing
8 x doxil. Still feel some tumors & lately, cramps.
So, PARP appears to be a better choice...
How to get into a trial here in US?

I wonder why it only works on BRCA positive women? We feel there is something going on in our family because my fraternal Grandmother had OVCA, my Mother has had breast cancer and my Father has prostrate cancer. My parents are 87 and 86 and have survived the BEAST's attacks on them to live a full, productive life.
