Vectibix (panitumumab) "Vectibix reduced my CEA (cancer marker) from 25.2 all the way down to 2.5 within the matter of a few months. The skin reaction SUCKS. Thankfully Ia able to undergo a revolutionary surgery to remove the portion of my liver with the metastatic cancer so I have just recently been able to stop the Vectibix. I am hoping I will get my beautiful skin back."

"All tumors gone - way better results than expected. Rash / skin conditions small price to pay. Who doesn't want a second chance at puberty?"

"I have horrible skin rashes over my entire body. Also cause infections on my toes that nothing seemed to be able to get rid of. I asked my doctor to discontinue use because my skin rashes were so bad."
