My mom has recurrent UPSC and has been treated with carbo/taxol. Her recent CT scan suggested mets to the liver. Anyone have success with drugs other than these? Thank you.

    Can't help but...
    I'll give this a bump...I know there is someone out there that has gone through this and you may also want to check out Linda Procopios' older posts...I believe she had mets to the liver.

    Take care,
    Cindy

    My mother also has UPSC - going on 3 years now and diagnosed at state 4b - Carbo/Taxol have also stopped working for her, and we are now using a weekly chemo treatment called GEMZAR which is proving to be successful.

    I wish you luck. I am very familiar with how stressful this is.
