My daughter in CT has stage 4 cancer, started in her uterus, within a couple of weeks went to her lungs, then to her brain, I was told that it is a very aggressive type of cancer, she has undergone radiation, chemo and is now having chemo that AIDS patients take, I am so scared for her but her attitude is very positive - she is 48 years old with a 13 year old son, she was told only 1 out of three will respond to treatment, she has had it for about 4 months now - would TARCEVA help her????
Hi, your daughter probably had a secondary in the lung i.e. spread from the primary cancer elsewhere. In this case it is mostly from uterus. But I need to know the type of uterine?.cervical cancer? Even if it is a cancer of these type, Marcela is indicated only in patients with primary lung cancer and does not work in patients with secondaries from other sites. She can continue with the chemo she is taking for AIDS.
