I am on my 3rd round of temodar. From what I understand, temodar has not been proven to work for brain mets from breast cancer. My oncoclogist seems to feel that there have been some good results in the past. I have an MRI follow up every two months and just had my 3rd follow up with no new tumor growth nor residual tumor growth at the surgical site. I am also on CMF Cyclophosphamide, Methotrexate, and Fluorouracil one week on two weeks off and Zometa once a month. Temodar round is 300 mg 5 days on 23 days off. It's too early to tell if the Temodar is helping. | F | 52 | 3 months | 12/6/2009 | 4 | Anaplastic Astrocytoma Brain Tumor | Nausea controlled well by anti nausea meds | F | 40 | 3 months | 11/17/2009 | 4 | Brain Tumor | Many small side effects.

This is acting as a preventative treatment since there is no cure to Glioblastoma Multiforme, but the beast has not recurred so it might be working. I have no deficit and doing well | M | 27 | 4 years | 8/15/2006 |
