Has anyone had NAL-IRI / Onivyde ?

It is nano-liposomal irinotecan with 5-FU - I think in a nutshell a newer type of FOLFIRI

It is available in america as 2nd line chemo for those who have progressed on gemcitabine treatments, but not licensed by NICE/ NHS

Currently only available privately here, but PCUK have said we could ask the hospital for it to be prescribed on compassionate grounds

As it's not widely prescribed I'm struggling to hear from others who have had this treatment

Thanks in advance
