Imagine your body's defense system, the lymphatic system, suddenly turning against you. This is the reality for those facing lymphoma, a cancer of the immune system's crucial network. This article delves into the complexities of lymphoma, exploring its various forms, from the aggressive to the indolent, and examining the latest breakthroughs in treatment, including the groundbreaking POLARIX trial and cutting-edge therapies for relapsed cases. Whether you're a patient, a loved one, or simply curious about this complex disease, this comprehensive overview will provide valuable insights into the current state of lymphoma care and the promising future of research.

Advance directives are a powerful way to take control of healthcare choices. These documents allow you to outline preferences for medical care and specify end-of-life wishes. These documents can also be a way to appoint loved ones who you would like to help with these decisions, such as a healthcare proxy (someone to make decisions on your behalf, if you cannot). As cancer treatments can involve aggressive treatments and/or complex medical management, having advance directives ensures that your desires regarding treatment options and end-of-life care are clearly communicated.

Generic Tarceva

Forums

Hi, my spouse has been taking Tarceva for a few years.  To my knowledge, generic Tarceva has been available on market since last year.  I was wondering if any of you know the efficacy of the generic Tarceva.  Those generics include Mylan, Teva and Armas.  Do they have the same efficacy as the branded Tarceva?  Do these generic brands show differences in efficacy from one to another?  Any information is appreiated?  Thank you.
