Hi Colleen. Thank you for checking in. My oncologist is starting me on a Nalirifox - Onivyde 5-FU regimen.
The Treatment is with liposomal irinotecan (Onivyde) plus 5-fluorouracil (5-FU), combined with leucovorin, and normally oxaliplatin (NALIRIFOX). Except she won't be giving me oxaliplatin because of bad Neuropathy I got when I was on it previously.
She also did Gardant360 liquid biopsy blood work as well as sending my tumor specimens to them to be analyzed for the Gardant360 Next testing. Hopefully the tests will result in me being able to try a targeted therapy.

What is Gardant 360 Next testing? I had my tumor analyzed for a molecular profile. Is this the same type of test?

Hi Joanne, I’m new to the group. Can you please share your treatment with Nalirifox. My oncologist wants to start me on this as well because of neuropathy from the past treatment as well.
