Our MEK-inhibitor trial has come to an end after about 4 years. BUT, we are about 9 years into the Ovarian Cancer diagnosis, meaning we are doing very well.
On our last 2 visits to our trial clinic, two tumors had grown a little and the CA-125 was up. So we had to drop out of the trial. (Pat was the only person left i the trial). Now we are 1. looking for a new approach, 2. have our doctor on-board for a new approach, and 3. Pat is going to be able to live more normally without side effects. (get her strength back, less GI stuff, less keeping up with medication schedule). Lose/Win/Win
