Great scan results!

I'm on a carbplatin/carbotaxil, temodar phase II trial after advancing to stage IV with brain mets and an adrenal tumor last summer. After two infusions 28 days apart the full body CT scan and brain MRI done on the 15th show no new tumors and the adrenal tumor has shrunk by more than 50%! A spot on my left lung that my onc does not think is a met had also shrunk from 9mm to 6mm so whatever it is, it's getting smaller too.

This is so fantastic! I was having a rough time with side effects but I went into today's infusion with a whole new attitude! My blood work was all really stong with no indications I am having problems with the protocol so after this third infusion, I will have three more every 28 days and at the end, surgery to remove the adrenal gland.

I hope everyone else is blessed with good news for Christmas! Carmon
