Anyone diagnosed with Gallbladder cancer?
Cancer | Last Active: Jan 13 6:20pm | Replies (56)Comment receiving replies
Has anyone been on gem/cis/durvalumab (Imfinzi) and when it stopped working gone to another chemo that worked and if so what was the new chemo treatment?
I was on gem/cis/durvalumab (Imfinzi) and stable, transitioned to durvalumab (Imfinzi) for maintenance. Tumor markers CEA and CA19-9 have been increasing dramatically. PET scan scheduled for August 18th. Expect it will show that the two small tumors are more active or if we have additional reoccurrence.
Trying to get ready for doctor meeting after PET scan.

My oncologist wants me to start on gem/cis/durvalumab because 2 of my lymph nodes are getting bigger.How long were you on the gem/cis and did it work?I am reluctant to do the treatment , do you think it s worth it.Any reply will be appreciated

@waflanders, it is so hard to hear when a treatment regimen stops working. I'm tagging fellow gallbladder cancer members like @steve90154 @pgf @formayor @alie @heartofgold57 @viopp to rejoin the discussion and add their suggestions as you prepare for the upcoming PET scan and appointment to discussion next options.
How are you doing?
