I had hysterectomy but there was some cancer left after surgery. I had 6 rounds chemio (4 before surgery, 2 after). Then 6 sessions of BEVacizum but cancer has grown slightly with this drug. So my doctor suspended this treatment and is sending me on a TRIAL called FONTANA. I would like to hear if anyone here has been on this  TRIAL. 

Thank you 

  • Hi  

    I’m Anne, one of the Community Champions here on the Online Community and, although I'm not a member of this group, I noticed that your post hadn't had any replies yet. Responding to you will 'bump' it back to the top of the discussion list again.

    I've also done a search in the group to look for previous posts which mention FONTANA but I've not been successful. Of course this doesn't mean that no one else is on this trial, they may just not have posted about it yet.

    While you're waiting for replies, it would be great if you could put something about your diagnosis and treatment to date into your profile as it really helps others when replying to you and also when looking for someone on a similar pathway. It also means that you don't have to keep repeating yourself. To do this click on your username and then select 'Profile'. You can amend it at any time and if you're not sure what to write you can take a look at mine by clicking on my username.

  • I have posted info about me. They are above

  • You don't need to complete your profile if you don't want to but it helps people in future when they're looking for someone with a similar history, and it also saves you having to type it out again at the beginning of every new post.
