Hello all,

I am about to start Folfiri and Ramucirumab, I have had Folfiri before so kind of know what to expect.  Has anyone been treated with Ramucirumab.  Any tips on what to expect would be appreciated x

  • Hi 

    All the very best with your next treatment . 
    I have not seen too much on it but I see it’s under the targeted therapy group . From what I can see we don’t get it funded in Scotland . Not sure if that’s still the case  . I did however read the research papers and it sounds encouraging results that got it funded in the first place in America .

    Hope it works well for you .
