I wrote earlier about a friend who was diagnosed with aggressive invasive G3 T2 BC in 2017 and offered adj chemo then RC. Her pre op CT scan indicated that it had spread to her liver, lungs and spine and she was given 2 years to live, the op was cancelled and she was offered just palliative care.

In the spring of 2018 she applied to go on the Ateziomizulab trial as she had nothing to lose. Obviously she had the actual immunotherapy rather than the placebo and has just had her second scan. The cancer is gone completely from her bladder, liver and lungs with only a residue in her bones. She is continuing with the weekly infusions.

I report this only so that those who are new to the forum can see that there is hope with new treatments coming on the horizon.
