Cancer term/medication - fencingmother


Posted: Sep 23, 2012

Gyne-oncologist dictating hx of treatment. 

"She then did well but developed a relapse, was placed on s/l "olp 16" in January of 2008."

Never mind, just figured it out - fencingmother

It was oral VP-16.

Need to know type of illness - Cancer? Where?

[ In Reply To ..]
Sounds like an abbreviation for a protocol, if dictator is saying the letters, O-L-P. If he/she is saying olp, not sure.

Notes Crossed - Glad you figured it out-nm

Mar 01, 2012

Patient has cancer of several sinuses. During the PE doc says "She has s/l meadows in the lower left jaw."  Meadows??

This is a patient who is on third line chemotherapy for metastatic small cell lung cancer.  He has progressed through carbotaxol, carbo VP16 and is now on topotecan.  I can't find carbotaxol or carbo VP16 and I don't have good chemo references.  Is carbotaxol carboplatin and taxol?  I guess my question is, should it be written carboplatin/taxol and carboplatin VP1-16?  Or how should this be written?  Help, I'm at a loss here.  TIA!! :-) ...
