Bonjour à tous je suis une jeune réunionnaise de 28 ans (i'm a woman aged 28 leav in Reunion Island)et je suis atteinte de cancer aux poumons depuis 3 ans. Je prends XALKORI depuis août 2013, (i take Xalkori since august 2013) jmon cancer a débuté peu après on accouchement (my son's birth) j'aimerai savoir quelle est l'efficacité en terme de temps de ce traitement, puis-je encore espérer le prendre longtemps? (How long do you take it, for how years is it works?) j'aimerai avoir des gens à qui parler car ceux qui sont autour de moi me soutiennent mais c'est réconfortant de parler aux gens de la même situation (i would talk about this with people who have this cancer and difficulties) Thanks a lot for your answers

PSPour les problèmes de foie je prends du chardon marie et du curcuma: Glutathion intracel it helps me so much,for fatigue try it

bonjour
je suis moi même traité par xalkori depuis 2 mois seulement et j'ai lu pratiquement toutes les publications qui sont sorties sur le cancer du poumon ALK ( surtout en Anglais) le Xalkori est efficace en général d'une période de 8 mois à 2 ans ou plus selon les personnes , après ce délai, une résistance au traitement apparaît mais il existe d'autres inhibiteurs ALK qui peuvent prendre le relais comme le ceritinib ou l'alectinib ( efficace sur les métastases cérébrales), des inhibiteurs de 3eme génération sont à l'essai, on peut espérer qu'avec ces nouvelles thérapies, on puisse tenir assez longtemps pour permettre aux chercheurs de trouver " le " médicament qui pourra éradiquer cette maladie, certains chercheurs pensent que le cancer pourrait devenir assez vite une maladie chronique style sida que l'on pourrait contrôler avec ces nouvelles thérapies

en attendant bon courage!
