    • Close Ovarian Cancer

      My mom has survived ovarian cancer for 6 years, and starting to fail. The treatment options through Kaiser at this point would not be good choices for her.

      Treatments

      Carboplatin Somewhat Helpful
      This is one treatment my mom has used.
      Chemotherapy Working / Worked
      Carboplatin was infused as well as other chemo agents.
      Gemcitabine Working / Worked
      My mom was on Gemzar for a long time, and did the best on that, but we understood there are limits.
      Taxotere Working / Worked
      This was the first chemo treatment used for my mom. It made her very sick and did not decrease her CA-125.
