For Ovarian Cancer "One year on this drug and now the CA markers are back elevated. The drug worked, maintained CA 125 marker for 7 months. I’m now meeting with the doctor to figure out the next treatment plan. I can’t take anything that is carboplatin-based as it causes profound hearing loss, and I’m already very hard of hearing. While on Doxil, my skin peeled, some pustules, but they healed after 3 months, loss of appetite, and minimal hair regrowth on the scalp. Overall, I tolerated this drug, but it’s not working for me, stage 4 ovarian cancer."

Doxil (doxorubicin liposomal) for Kaposi's Sarcoma "Started end of June on the standard dose every two weeks (in combination with Biktarvy daily). Had a very large Kaposi's Sarcoma tumor on the eyelid and later discovered pulmonary lesions suspected to be KS related. One month later the tumor was in significant remission, I would say it is down in size by 2/3. After six cycles and given that I tolerate the drug very well, decided with the oncologist to go for 6 more cycles hoping for total remission of the eyelid tumor, and we will see next month about the suspected pulmonary involvement. To note: I live in a country with (near) universal health cover where the state pays for health care, save a small out-of-pocket co-payment, I think my participation is around 20 dollars per cycle."
