:01:03
Insidious means undetectable at an early...
:01:05
Insidious means treacherous.
:01:08
- Shall I continue?
- By all means.
:01:11
Good.
:01:12
In invasive epithelial carcinoma...
:01:14
the most effective treatment modality
is a chemotherapeutic agent.
:01:18
We are developing
an experimental combination of drugs...
:01:21
designed for primary-site ovarian,
for the target specificity of stage three...
:01:25
and beyond administration.
:01:27
Am I going too fast?
:01:29
No.
:01:32
You will be hospitalized
as an in-patient for treatment each cycle.
:01:32
You will be hospitalized
as an in-patient for treatment each cycle.
:01:36
After the initial eight cycles,
you will have another battery of tests.
:01:40
The antineoplastic will inevitably
affect some healthy cells...
:01:44
including those lining
the gastrointestinal tract...
:01:46
from the lips to the anus,
and the hair follicles.
:01:48
We will be relying on your resolve...
:01:50
to withstand some of the more
pernicious side effects.
:01:58
I beg your pardon.
:02:02
- Do you have any questions so far?
- Please, go on.
:02:05
- Perhaps some of these terms are new...
- No, you're being very thorough.
:02:10
I make a point of it.
I always emphasize it with my students.
:02:13
So do I. Thoroughness,
I always tell my students...
:02:17
but, they are constitutionally
averse to painstaking work.
:02:21
- Yours too.
- It's worse every year.
:02:23
- Mine are blind.
- Mine are deaf.
:02:26
- You just have to hope.
- I suppose so.
:02:32
Where were we?
:02:33
I believe I was being
thoroughly diagnosed.
:02:35
Right.
:02:36
Now, the tumor is spreading very quickly.
:02:40
And this treatment is very aggressive.
:02:43
- So far, so good?
- Yes.
:02:46
- Better not teach next semester.
- Out of the question.
:02:49
The first week of each cycle
you'll be hospitalized for chemotherapy.
:02:52
The next week you may feel a little tired.
:02:55
- The next two will be fine, relatively.
- Eight months like that.
:02:59
This treatment is the strongest thing
we have to offer you.
