Questions to ask your oncologist
- I've read that Relacorilant has been studied in people for Ovarian Epithelial Carcinoma — what's the evidence, and is it an option or available in a trial for me?
- Of the open trials I found (for example NCT03755739), am I eligible for any — here or at a larger cancer center?
- What is my exact diagnosis — the type, subtype, stage, and grade?
- Has my tumor had molecular or genomic testing (e.g. next-generation sequencing), and what did it find?
- Should I have inherited (germline) genetic testing, and could it affect my treatment or my family?
- What is the goal of treatment for me — cure, long-term control, or comfort?
- What are all of my standard treatment options, and what does each one involve?
- What is the realistic benefit of each option, in actual numbers?
- What are the most common and the most serious side effects, and how are they managed?
- How will we know if treatment is working, and how often will I be scanned or tested?
- If the first treatment doesn't work, what are the next options?
- Are there gentler options if I want to prioritize quality of life?
- Am I eligible for any clinical trials — here or at a larger/academic cancer center?
- Is my case reviewed by a multidisciplinary tumor board?
- Would a second opinion at a center that treats my cancer often be worthwhile?
- Could any of my prescriptions, over-the-counter drugs, or supplements interfere with treatment?
- Which symptoms are emergencies, and who do I call after hours?
- Should I see palliative or supportive care alongside my treatment?
- How will treatment affect my daily life, work, and (if it matters to me) fertility?
- What can I safely do myself — diet and activity — and is anything I'm taking risky?
- What will treatment cost, and is financial assistance available?
- Should my tumor tissue be stored (biobanked) for future testing or trials?
