Hello Gemmalt:

I had six weeks of radiation after the surgery. I will be doing a CT scan next week to find out lung metastases. I will know more about the next treatment after CT.
I am wondering if Trabectadin was effective for UPS. Traditional chemo may not be effective against UPS.

Hi
Dad is on his 10th round of Trabectadin very little effects - CT scan after 3 months showed shrinkage, just had another scan now and waiting for results on 10th Nov. Some patients have been on 30-40 treatments and still going (every 3 week schedule). They said it would continue until progression/toxicity. Dad has only had one delayed as neutrophils low. They did joke was he actually on chemo last time we went as he presents fit and well. We were told it’s not curative but will hold it back. We are UK based but I’m taking him to Tampa end of this month to meet his grandchildren he’s never seen so fingers crossed all goes well. Good Luck to you xx
