All of my required scanning is complete and first Chemo treatment as part of trial is next Friday, September 11th. Dana Farber called yesterday, blood and IV put in at 7:15am, doctor at 8:00am and infusion begins at 9:00am. I have been assigned to Group C of the trial which will have be getting Biological: bevacizumab which has a brand name of Avastin and Chemo Drug: ixabepilone. In reading through everything I think this si the best group for me....I've already had the taxol which was a possibility in this study and it didn't work. Here is the link to the government information on the trial treamant...
