Verzenio and Tumor Marker
Has anyone had their CA 27-29 score go up since starting Verzenio. Mine has slowly been increasing and was recently above normal. Thanks

how long have you been on Verzenio? I believe it is quite common to have an initial spike in tumor markers when starting these meds, and then have things settle down after a few months.

My tumor markers went way up after starting Verzenio. My oncologist said that it’s normal as cancer cells die. Now after 7 months they’re steadily going down. So, if you’re at the beginning of Verzenio don’t worry

Thank you. I have had to start and stop Verzenio a few times because of Diep flap reconstruction surgery, an oophorectony and a couple other things. My TM never climbed this high though, even during chemo and my mastectomy.
