Apologies for not answering this for you earlier. Although I have never taken the drug I am positive this is a very real concern for you. What I do know about elevating CA 125 levels in general are that most often, Oncogists look for a consistent trend when monitoring them. That could mean trends of slow gradual rise or faster climbing numbers upwards or vice versa. This is usually over a 2-3 months to see what the trend is in addition to treatment, response to treatment and symptoms or any additional testing and their results. This is what helps them paint a better picture for the answer you are searching for. I do hope that helps.
Alternatively, I typed in Niraparib into the search bar and at least 9 different discussion threads came up. There could be some very valuable info in those threads for you. I would suggest reading them to see what info they hold.
I hope you find the answers to the questions you are seeking, have alternative therapies to turn to if this is not the one for yourself and/or you make the correct answers for you and how you choose to live your best life.
I will be curious to see an update from you when you are ready to share with the group.
Take care0
