Frequently Asked Questions



(Relevance) Question - click to see the response!

  (0.7967)   my son is three years old and has just finished 11 months of a 15 month Carboplatin/Vincristine protocal for an Optic Glioma. The tumor has regressed, but the reason Logan had to quit chemotherapy is he developed first cold antibodies, then warm. His hgb dropped to 4.6, and he could not be transfused because no perfect match was found. His hgb is now 12.1(after 4 weeks of prednesone). My question to you is, do you have any information on patients who have an OG and have had to end chemo early? Are the chance of recurrence higher than with patients who complete chemo? I am running out of places to ask, no one has answers! We are being treated at the Boman Grey School of Medicine(Wake Forest/Baptist in Winston-Salem NC) THANK YOU!!
