I had 6 chemo with carbon plaxin drug before the OC cancer got resistant (ca125 at 250). Then had major hysterectomy done. Cancer still there but my CA125 to 106. But then when they were testing to seeing this new drug would work (mervituxim) my ca125 shot up back up 1063. Started this infusion of the 'targeted' mervituxim in Nov 2024. My ca125 numbers dropped quickly . After 6 infusions, I am at 23 for my ca125.

We talked to the oncologist yesterday about Elahere and he said they will look at tumor tissue taken out during debulking surgery last September to see if my wife’s cancer is folate receptor-alpha positive ovarian cancer. Elahere seems like a great choice for platinum resistant cancer.
