Hl Karume, I am a 73 yr old lady who has also had a resection for colon
cancer, with one lymphnode involved. I had what is called adjunctive
therapy of 5 fu and lukivoran for five months. This therapy is reported to
have a 60% remission potential. However, after 5 months, my cea, which is
cancer tumor marker. showed and increase, which indicated a proliferation of
cancer cells. I have just started an aggressive treatment of cpt 11 which is
only 30% remission potential. I have never heard the phrase signet ringdel
carcinoma. But I hope my history is of help in finding out more for your
mother.
Prays are with you. Sylvia K.
