"Have been in a zejula clinical trial for about seven months, maintaining on 100 mg . The higher dose affected my platelets and wbc's too badly. I have anemia on the 100 mg but honestly do not notice it, and I have no other side effects at all. We'll see how effective it is, but for now my CA-125 is steady at around 11. This was after front line treatment. So far I'm happy with it."

"Diagnosed with stage 3 Ovarian cancer, which started as peritoneal, 2015. 17 months remission then cancer returned (peritoneal) A few months ago started Zejula. I had very, very mild side effects for about 3 weeks. Dull headaches, fatigue... but that was about it. I was very lucky my body took to it well. Stopped taking anti-nausea pills when side effects stopped. I’m rating this an 8 only because I haven’t been taking it long and don’t know if my cancer will return, therefore knowing if the Zejula will have prolonged remission. I was told before I started that if I did have problems they would drop down to 100mg until I got used to it then gradually up it to the 300mg. So there is that option, but so far so good."

"Diagnosed in November 2019. with Primary Peritoneal Cancer. 6 rounds of chemo and a hot chemo wash complete. Scan a were clear. Started taking Zejula about a month ago. BP has gone way up, Blood Sugar has gone up, WBC has gone down. I’m tired all the time. I’ve decided to stop taking it and just continue with the Letrosol. Just had another Scan yesterday and I am clean. No cancer"
