AG0452 - caused by "pockets of resistance" to treatment because mastectomy

CR0409 - for the meeting on 061020. ref SDS 94 CV5L  The record was updated on
CR0410 - 061201 showing symptoms of chronic fatigue, cough, shortness of

CR0413 - hemoglobin blood count increased to the normal range, yet symptoms of
CR0414 - pulmonary embolism continued. ref SDS A0 2P9F
CR0416 -  ..
CR0417 - A factor driving further inquiry is failure of pulmonary embolism to
CR0418 - recover after months of treatment beginning on 061002, which contrasts
CR0419 - sharply with prior experience in 2004.  Previously, Millie recovered
CR0420 - former energy and relief from symptoms within a few months after
CR0421 - starting treatment on 041104, as reported on 041230. ref SDS 39 RZ4I

CR0431 - Since Millie relapsed after this finding, reported on 061012,
CR0432 - ref SDS 92 294Q, and since relapse carries a high risk of death for
CR0433 - pulmonary embolism, reported on 060722, ref SDS 78 BI5J, increased
CR0434 - scrutiny is required to manage elevated risk of further pulmonary
CR0435 - embolism.
CR0437 -  ..
CR0438 - The doctor plans vigorous testing to monitor Millie's reaction from
CR0439 - treatment with cetuximab and carboplatin in the clinical study that
CR0440 - could complicate and compound preconditions of pulmonary embolisma and
CR0441 - Cor Pulmonale (enlarged right ventricle).
CR0443 -  ..
CR0444 - Doctor Rugo advised today that fatigue, shortness of breath, and
CR0445 - weakness that occur from Millie's preconditions of pulmonary embolism
CR0446 - and heart disorders, can be compounded by treatment with cetuximab, as
CR0447 - listed in Consent documents for the clinical study received from UCSF
CR0448 - on 070116. ref SDS B3 I75I, The Consent documents also cite
CR0449 - interstitial lung disease (ILD) that results in inflammation, scarring
CR0450 - and hardening of the lungs.  Interstitial lung disease has been
CR0451 - reported in fewer than 1% of patients treated with cetuximab.
CR0452 - Patients are directed to notify the doctor immediately if shortness of
CR0453 - breath occurs while receiving cetuximab. ref SDS B3 0256
CR0455 -  ..
CR0456 - This presents a "wicked problem" distinguishing between expected side
CR0457 - effects of cancer treatment, which are not lethal and eventually
CR0458 - dissipate after treatment ends, reported on 030606, ref SDS 18 RY5J,
CR0459 - from rising symptoms of pulmonary embolism which can turn lethal
CR0460 - quickly, previously reviewed on 060722. ref SDS 78 346F
CR0462 -  ..
CR0463 - Today, the doctor carefully reviewed patient history to distinguish
CR0464 - symptoms of lung disease, pulmonary embolism, and heart disease,
CR0465 - enlarged right ventricle, discussed below, ref SDS 0 VJ4J, from side
CR0466 - effects of treatment with cetuximab that could complicate and compound
CR0467 - Millie's preconditions.

CR0471 - symptoms. ref SDS 78 ZV41

CR0474 - Millie began having shortness of breath, fatigue and weakness in late
CR0475 - August associated with normal exertion walking up stairs at home, at
CR0476 - BART, and walking to her office at 2 Embacadero Center in San
CR0477 - Francisco.  On 060914 she fell at the BART station. ref SDS 87 ZQ5I
CR0478 - At that time, attention focused on her swelled left hand and arm,
CR0479 - which eventually cascaded into cellulitus that landed Millie in the
CR0480 - hospital for a week beginning on 061027. ref SDS 96 V77F  During the
CR0481 - meeting on 060929, the doctor ordered a CT test for pulmonary embolism
CR0482 - to investigate rising symptoms. ref SDS 89 B56N  The test was
CR0483 - expedited and performed the next day on 060930.  Two days later, on
CR0484 - 061002 the doctor reported findings of pulmonary embolism recurrence.
CR0485 - ref SDS 91 MI5I  The doctor ordered treatments resumed, which were
CR0486 - previously ended on 051007. ref SDS 60 XN7K  Test report reviewed on
CR0487 - 061012 showed new findings of enlarged right ventricle, discussed
CR0488 - below. ref SDS 0 VJ4J
CR0490 -  ..
CR0491 - Side effects of cetuximab that make patients tired and weak, can be
CR0492 - distinguished from symptoms of pulmonary embolism by applying the
CR0493 - practice in 2004 using CT tests to determine if conditions reported on
CR0494 - 060930 have improved, stabalized, or worsened.  If conditions are
CR0495 - worse or stable relative to conditions on 060930, this points to
CR0496 - symptoms of continuing pulmonary embolism.  If comparison shows
CR0497 - pulmonary conditions have improved or are no longer present, as
CR0498 - occurred previusly in 2004, per above, ref SDS 0 GX60, then low
CR0499 - energy, tiredness, and weakness can be reasonably attributed to side
CR0500 - effects of cetuximab treatments.
CR0502 -  ..
CR0503 - Since the most recent image test on 061227 was a combination PET/CT
CR0504 - test, which does not support analysis of pulmonary embolism, Kaiser
CR0505 - was unable to make comparison with the test on 060930 with respect to
CR0506 - pulmonary embolism, as shown in record on 070102 that reviewed the
CR0507 - recent report. ref SDS A9 AK9H
CR0509 -  ..
CR0510 - The doctor asked Millie how she is feeling today?
CR0512 -  ..
CR0513 - Millie's letter to Kaiser on 061227 reported continuing symptoms of
CR0514 - pulmonary embolism: tired, weak, heavy chest, shortness of breath with
CR0515 - routine effort. ref SDS A5 B987
CR0517 -  ..
CR0518 - Millie reported today that energy and strength seem improved over the
CR0519 - past few weeks.  She is starting to feel like getting back in the gym
CR0520 - to resume regular exercise, as discussed with the primary care
CR0521 - physician at Kaiser on 061208. ref SDS A3 HZ39
CR0523 -  ..
CR0524 - The doctor indicated that feeling higher energy and strength aligns
CR0525 - with ending Taxotere and capecitabine chemotherapy treatments 2 months
CR0526 - ago on 061201, ref SDS 99 407N, particularly in light of reports on
CR0527 - 050516 that treatment with Taxotere and capecitabine (Xeloda) was
CR0528 - extremely debilitating. ref SDS 49 AQ6G  This suggests conditions of
CR0529 - fatigue, weakness, heavy chest, and shortness of breath were mostly
CR0530 - attributed to accumulating side effects of chemotherapy, discussed by
CR0531 - the primary care physician on 030606. ref SDS 18 O44J
CR0533 -  ..
CR0534 - Case study on 060722 shows Millie's patient history requires a special

CR0539 - UCSF will ask Kaiser to perform CT tests to evaluate progression of
CR0540 - lung and heart disorders by comparing with past findings, as specified
CR0541 - by the primary care physician at Kaiser on 061208, ref SDS B0 Q93H,
CR0542 - and to follow prior practice at Kaiser reported on 041230 developing
