@txtim
I am being treated at Moffitt Cancer Center, Tampa for Ta high risk NIMBC. After my TURBT last September, my pathology slides were examined by an AI system called Vesta from Valar Labs, but developed at the Univ of Omaha. Biomarkers showed that BCG would not work for me, so I’m on Gem/Doce. After the 6 week induction I was clear and have started the 12- month maintenance with 3-monthly cystoscopy, the first of which will be next month🤞

@gemdoc25 That's so great! Eat well. It helps.
@gemdoc25 I just got my Vesta results back and I am not a likely candidate for BCG. I have my 90 scope this Wednesday- anxiety is high. Thanks again for Vesta intel. I wish you well🙏

@gemdoc25 thanks for sharing your experiences. Glad to hear you’re having success! Appreciate hearing about Vesta at Valar Labs. I will discuss them with my oncologist. My first biopsy said Ta, but results from the second will hopefully confirm that. We’ll see.
