If this man is diagnosed with colon cancer and his chemo doctor prescribes FOLFOX ($12,000 / month) gym bro might say "That's just big pharma again! Don't pay that! Just hold these crystals under your arms, and get some sunlight on your private parts!🤡" The man might believe it.😢

New research from Dr. Giorgio Caturegli at #ASTRO26 compares neoadjuvant FOLFOX vs. CROSS chemoradiation for esophageal adenocarcinoma. FOLFOX was associated with higher CRR, higher 5-year recurrence-free and overall survival in unadjusted analyses. @astro-org.bsky.social

Cancer survival rates for bowel cancer have doubled thanks to stuff like FOLFOX and HIPEC.

Stage IV Colon Cancer (pandemic dx) survivor: surgery, 12 rounds of FOLFOX, currently NED.

I’m proud of simply just keeping f*ing going.

3rd cycle of folfox isn't as rough as the first 2, thank goodness. 😮‍💨 & the oncologist says i'm due for another scan midway through next month to see if the chemo is working this time 🤞

This would be even more terrifying than you think.

Folfox is a cancer drug I was on a few years ago. It makes it so you can't drink cold drinks, and you can't touch cold surfaces. You can't be outside in the cold. It's EXTREMELY painful, and makes your skin go numb.

The latest from #ASCO25: Patients with dMMR #ColonCancer treated with chemoimmunotherapy with FOLFOX and atezolizumab had a 50% reduction in cancer recurrence and death, compared to chemotherapy alone.

Just look at survival rates for bowel cancer since they developed the FOLFOX and FOLFIRE processes. Astonishing improvements in fifteen years.

Bolus 5-FU should not be used in the metastatic setting with FOLFOX, FOLFIRI, FOLFIRINOX. There will never be a prospective trial studying this, so try to eliminate bolus 5-FU whenever possible. jnccn.org/view/journal...

Cieszyliśmy się z Aliną, jego żona, że 21 stycznia zawieziemy go na leczenie nowym lekiem, który jest w 4 fazie badań klinicznych, dostal zgodę z onlologii, stąd ten folfox bo chemia inicjująca musi byc, toż do tego czasu będzie po wszystkim.

Check out this master class in adjuvant therapy for patients with #colorectalcancer by Hanna Sanoff @unclineberger.bsky.social. How do we practically implement the statistical insanity of IDEA? 3mo vs 6mo? CapeOx vs FOLFOX? It's in there...

This one makes me despise the very thought of food, get pale and sweaty, have pretty intense reflux, and sleep uncontrollably and unpredictably for 4-5 days. Sometimes I get mild sores on mouth/throat, and my hair is thinning.

But compared to FOLFOX it's a walk in the park.

What's going on?
Gastrointestinal cancers getting winners at #ASCO almost unheard of and we get:

⭐adjuvant IO-FOLFOX (Colorectal)

⭐neo-adjuvant IO-FLOT (Gastric)

So the first chemo I was on was a combination of three things known as FOLFOX for short. While I was on it, I couldn't touch anything cold or even slightly below room temperature, or it felt like being stabbed with a thousand needles. This included swallowing. THROAT NEEDLES.
February 10, 2025 at 2:57 PM
[chemo] apparently you can only do 12 cycles of folfox. i'm more than halfway through, so in a few months we'll have to stop.

i guess after that we try a 3rd regimen, which may not work, like the 1st one we did. i'm not looking forward to losing more precious time on ineffective treatments

🏥💉Update of my garstig Karzinom

Die Klinik hat sich gerade gemeldet.
Nach den letzten Gaben mit FOLFOX, ist die Situation wieder stabil. Kein sichtbares Wachstum der Metastasen. Nächste Woche geht es weiter. Wenigstens lohnt sich die Quälerei.
February 11, 2025 at 10:35 AM
D.h., anfänglich hat es wohl funktioniert, hat dann aber nachgelassen. Die Leber gilt als stabil. Der Bereich des nicht mehr existenten Primärtumors (Colon) ist unauffällig. Im Dezember erhalte ich deshalb wieder Folfox für ca. 4 Wochen.

Thank you so much for sharing.

FOLFOX is the worst (even if it makes is better).

Same with my wife. Was told that her cancer wouldn’t have been treated twenty years ago, but thanks to treatments like HIPEC and FOLFOX, she’s been cancer-free for three years (cross fingers).
