low dosage adriamyacin - side effects?

[eric]

Caryn went to Sloan yesterday expecting a trial suggestion and instead they suggested going back onto Adriamyacin but at a low dose given weekly. We like the idea since she has been doing well on the Doxil (same class of drug) but had to get off since it was buring her sking from the inside. Adriamyacin was the very first chemo she went on when first diagnosed and she did not tolerate it well at all. She was hospitalized as a result of constant nausea but the docs feel the lower dose given weekly should make a dramatic difference. Has anyone else done this? If so, what was your experience?
