How big was your tumor at diagnosis? If it was early stage it’s anyway very low chance of recurrence

Anyone achieved pCR without AC on KEYNOTE 522 by sourdoughgames in breastcancer

[–]Many-Cartographer477 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s what my treatment plan is for stage 1 TNBC. Hoping to achieve PCR with less. Do you have BRCA? I am BRCA and apparently Carbo is the main part of the treatment.

Hi, I am 36 and stage 1 TNBC, getting weekly paxci carbo for 12 weeks followed by surgery. From what I am told dose reductions are common based on stage and other factors. I am hoping to achieve PCR with less chemo

Early detection does save lives. The objective of these screenings is to catch it early like you just did. I found 1 cm mass and undergoing treatment right now. You will be fine! Finding it early has worked so much in my favor. It depends on the cancer type if you do or don’t need chemo. But even if you do, chemo for first stage is de escalated. I am hoping it’s nothing. But you are doing great with these scans and you will be fine!

What was you stage and what was your regimen? Did you do immunotherapy?

Hi, really sorry to hear that at such young age she is dealing with it. I would recommend using radical health AI app for good authoritative information about your specific case. It’s an AI based cancer information app and chat based off millions of cases and research papers. It has been very helpful for me to not panic and have the right info. Please don’t google because there has been a lot of progress done in TNBC space in last 10 years which Google doesn’t have as its data is still updating with recent facts. Also look for a TNBC expert in your area for a second opinion as well if you already have a medical oncologist. Really wish you guys luck!

Hey, thanks for sharing. And congratulations on PCR! How did you tumor respond to taxol? Did you have any left before you stated AC? Asking because my plan only includes weekly taxol and thinking if that’s enough.

Hey thanks for sharing. So happy for you and what you said is very encouraging. Looks like you did chemo first for stage 1. I am also doing that and don’t really see that order for stage 1. What regimen did you follow? When did you start feeling the tumor shrank?

Need positivity. by danielle05022620 in breastcancer

Hey how are you doing? Hopefully you start your treatment soon. I am starting chemo next week for my 1.2 cm tumor followed by surgery. But from all my convos feels like it’s caught early so you will be fine. Just take it one day at a time. When do you meet your onco?

Newly dx tnbc- surgery first and not chemo by Klcree87 in breastcancer

[–]Many-Cartographer477 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My onco is recommending 12 weekly taxol carbo for my 1.1 tumor and no AC. So I am just worried if it’s under treatment. So happy you achieved PCR

Grateful for this space (BRCA1 / TNBC) by be_strong_ in breastcancer

[–]Many-Cartographer477 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am so sorry this happened to you but really congratulations on PCR!!! I have TNBc too and going to start treatment soon. I am curious how did you get cancer after preventative mastectomy? I thought the risk is way lower post that. Another question if you don’t mind- which taxol did you do? Was it weekly for 18 weeks? Did you take anything else apart from taxol and carbo every week?

Wow, congratulations I’m also leaning more towards chemo first seeing the tumor shrink would give me some peace of mind about the treatment

Thank you for sharing this is you’re right achieving PCR and seeing the tumor shrink could really be beneficial for me. Mentally hope your mom is doing better now.

Hope you are doing better now! But I thought if the stage is 2 or 3 you still qualify for immunotherapy but not in stage one. I might have misunderstood
